The connectors are labeled LEFT FRONT, LEFT
SURROUND, RIGHT FRONT, RIGHT SUR-
ROUND, CENTER, CENTER BACK 1/LEFT,
and CENTER BACK 2/RIGHT. You must con-
nect each of the five speakers to the proper
terminal on the RSX-1067.
Route the wires from the RSX-1067 to the speak-
ers. Leave enough slack so you can move the
components to allow access to the speaker con-
nectors. If you are using banana plugs, con-
nect them to the wires and then plug into the
backs of the binding posts. The collars of the
binding posts should be screwed in all the way
(clockwise). If you are using terminal lugs,
connect them to the wires. If you are attach-
ing bare wires directly to the binding posts,
separate the wire conductors and strip back
the insulation from the end of each conduc-
tor. Be careful not to cut into the wire strands.
Unscrew the binding post collars. Place the
connector lug or the twisted bare wire around
the binding post shaft. Turn the collars clock-
wise to clamp the connector lug or wire firmly
in place.
1. Connect the front right speaker to binding
posts labeled RIGHT FRONT.
2. Connect the front left speaker to binding
posts labeled LEFT FRONT.
3. Connect the center channel speaker to
binding posts labeled CENTER.
4. Connect the surround right speaker to bind-
ing posts labeled RIGHT SURROUND.
5. Connect the surround left speaker to binding
posts labeled LEFT SURROUND SPEAKER.
6. Connect the center back left speaker to bind-
ing posts labeled CENTER BACK 1/LEFT.
7. Connect the center back right speaker to
binding posts labeled CENTER BACK 2/
RIGHT.
NOTE
: Be sure that no loose wire strands can
touch adjacent wires or connectors.
After you have connected the speakers, you
need to configure the RSX-1067 for the size
and style of speakers in your system and cali-
brate the relative volume levels of the speak-
ers using the built-in test tones. See the
Setup
section of this manual.
Redirect Feature
The RSX-1067 has a “redirect” feature that
allows you to use the front left and front right
amplifier channels to power Zone 2 speak-
ers. For example, you might use a high-per-
formance separate Rotel stereo power ampli-
fier to drive the front speakers and then redi-
rect the unused amplifiers to power two speak-
ers in a remote location.
If your system does not have center back speak-
ers, you can also redirect the built-in center
back channel amplifiers to drive two Zone 2
speakers.
To use this feature, connect the left and right
center back speakers to either the front left/
right or the center back left/right speaker
connections on the RSX-1067 rear panel. If
you only have one center back speaker, con-
nect it to CENTER BACK 1/LEFT speaker po-
sition and leave the other set of front connec-
tions unused. Then, go to the SPEAKER SETUP
screen of the ON-SCREEN MENU system and
change the REDIRECT line to ZONE SP for either
the front channels or the center back channels.
Connecting a Subwoofer
To hook up a powered subwoofer, connect a
standard RCA audio cable from either of the
two PREOUT jacks labeled SUB to the input
on the subwoofer’s power amp. Both SUB
outputs provide the same signal. Use either
connection for a single subwoofer. Use both
connections to hook up two subwoofers.
After you have connected the subwoofer, you
need to configure the RSX-1067 to use the sub-
woofer and calibrate the relative volume level
of the subwoofer using the built-in test tones.
See the Setup section of this manual.
Amplifiers
To hook up optional power amplifi-
ers, connect an audio cable from each
PREOUT jack to the input of the amplifier chan-
nel that will power the corresponding speaker.
In a full home theater system, you will need
to make as many as seven different connec-
tions in addition to the subwoofer. These con-
nections are labeled FRONT L &R, CENTER,
and REAR L & R. There are two CENTER jacks,
use either jack for a single center channel or
both if you have two center channels. In six
or seven channel systems, you will make one
or two additional connections for center back
speaker(s). These jacks are labeled CB1 and
CB2. Use CB1 for a single center back chan-
nel.
Make sure that you have each output connected
to the correct amplifier channel (front right, left
rear, etc.).
AM Antenna
The RSX-1067 includes a plastic loop antenna
to receive AM radio signals. Remove this
antenna from the box and locate it near the
RSX-1067. It can be tacked to a wall, using
the mounting tab provided. Alternatively, you
can fold the center portion of the antenna to
form a tabletop stand.
Connect the 300 ohm twin-conductor wire from
the loop antenna to the push terminals labeled
AM LOOP, attaching one wire to each termi-
nal. It does not matter which wire attaches to
which terminal, but make sure that the con-
nections are solid and that the two wires do
not touch.
You may need to rotate or otherwise reorient
the antenna to find the best position.
NOTE
: To use an outdoor antenna, connect its
300 ohm twin-conductor wire to the termi-
nals in place of the loop antenna.
FM Antenna
The RSX-1067 is supplied with a T-shaped in-
door FM antenna. Connect the coax F-type plug
to the FM antenna connector on the RSX-1067.
For best reception, unfold the T-shaped antenna.
Eyelets at both ends of the T allow tacking the
antenna to a wall, if desired. Experiment with
positioning for best reception.
NOTE
: To use an outdoor antenna, connect its
75 ohm coax lead wire to the FM connector
instead of the indoor wire antenna, only af-
ter a professional contractor has installed the
antenna system in accordance with local elec-
trical codes.
