Getting Started
Connecting the Antennas
The AM and FM antennas connect to the AM and
FM terminals on the system’s back panel. They must
be hooked up in order to receive clear reception.
Uncoil the antenna wires and locate the bare ends.
Press down on the tab to open the terminal and
insert the wire. Snap the tab closed. After connect-
ing the antennas, extend
them to their full length
and adjust their positioning
for better reception.
Connecting the
Speakers
At least two front speakers
(left and right) are required.
For better sound quality,
Center speaker, rear speak-
ers and Subwoofer are pre-
ferred. Adding center and
rear speakers will enhance
surround effects. Adding a
Subwoofer will increase
bass response.
If you want to enjoy full range of sound effects, with
small speakers, it is a must to use the subwoofer
with the speakers to maintain adequate bass signal
for the surround sound effect.
Speaker cords, 1 for each speaker, are needed for
connection. Twist the stripped ends of speaker cord
about 2/3 inch (15 mm). Press down on the tab to
open the terminal and insert the wire. Snap the tab
closed. To ease speaker connections, the speaker
cords and the terminals are color-coded into:
Red/Black (Main Speakers), Blue/Black (Center
Speaker) and Grey/ Black (Rear Speakers). When con-
necting the speakers, make sure the colors of speak-
er wires and terminals are matched. If the cords are
reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack
bass.
Connecting the Subwoofer
For RT2250, connect the subwoofer with the audio
cord (brown/ black) provided. For RT2250R, or if you
want to connect your own powered subwoofer, a
monoaural audio cord (not supplied) is needed.
This receiver offers a high flexibility for user to use a
large variety of speakers and subwoofers. For more
information please refer to section “Fine Setting of
the Speakers” in “Advanced Sound Control” on
page 12.
