If you have an additional front speaker system
Connect them to the FRONT SPEAKERS B terminals.
If your TV monitor uses separate speakers
You can connect one of them to the SURROUND OUT
CENTER terminal for use with Dolby Pro Logic
Surround Sound (see page 15).
Selecting the speaker system
If you connect only one set of front speakers, set the
SPEAKERS selector on the front panel to A. If you
connect two sets of front speakers, see the following:
* Connect speakers with nominal impedances of 8 ohms, or
higher, to the A and B terminals.
Where do I go next?
To complete your system, go to “AC Hookups” on page 8. If
you want to connect video components to enjoy surround
sound when watching TV programs or video tapes, go on to
the next section.
Speaker System Hookups
Overview
This section describes how to connect your speakers to
the amplifier. Although front (left and right) speakers
are required, center and rear speakers are optional.
Adding center and rear speakers will enhance the
surround effects. Connecting an active woofer will
increase bass response.
For specific locations of the terminals, see the
illustration below.
For optimum surround sound effect, place your
speakers as shown below.
What cords will I need?
Speaker cord (not supplied) (1 for each speaker)
Twist the stripped ends of the cord about 15 mm. Be sure to
match the speaker cord to the appropriate terminal on the
components: + to + and – to –. If the cords are reversed, the
sound will be distorted and will lack bass.
