9. CONNECTING SPEAKERS
• Be sure to connect speakers firmly and correctly according to the channel(left and right) and the polarity
(+ and -). If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the
speaker connection is incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
• For installing the speakers, refer to “Speaker placement” on page 11.
• After installing the speakers, first adjust the speaker settings according to your environment and speaker
layout. (For details, refer to “SETTING THE SPEAKER/ROOM EQ SETUP” on page 55.)
Front speakers A and B
• This unit allows you to connect two different sets of front speakers and to select either FRONT A or/and B
speakers according to your taste.
• However, if you have only a set of front speakers, connect them to either FRONT A or B speaker
terminals.
Surround back speakers
• When using only one surround back speaker, you should connect it to SURROUND BACK/ROOM 2
LEFT channel.
• If you assign the power amplifier for the surround back/room 2 channels to the ROOM 2, this unit can
drive the speakers in another room (ROOM 2).
(For details, refer to “CONNECTING ROOM 2 OUTS” on page 12 and “When selecting the AMP ASSIGN”
on page 49.)
Caution :
• For safe amplifier operation, in case of using either front A or front B speakers, use all the speakers with
impedance of over 6 ohms. However, in case of using both front A and front B speakers, use only these
speakers with impedance of over 12 ohms and other speakers with impedance of over 6 ohms.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or any metal part of this unit. This could damage this
unit and/or the speakers.
