Connecting speakers

NOTE

Disconnect this unit’s power plug from the power outlet before connecting the speakers.

Connect so that the speaker cable core wires do not protrude from the speaker terminal. The protection circuit may be activated if the core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and - sides touch each other. (Protection circuitlink)

Never touch the speaker terminals while the power cord is connected. Doing so could result in electric shock.

Use speakers with impedances within the ranges shown below to suit how they are used.

Connecting the speaker cables

Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and – (black) polarities on the speakers being connected to this unit, and be sure to connect the channels and polarities correctly.

Peel off about 3/8 inch (10 mm) of sheathing from the tip of the speaker cable, then either twist the core wire tightly or terminate it.
