Speaker connection
Here we connect the speakers in the room to this unit.
This section explains how to connect them using typical examples.
Disconnect this unit’s power plug from the power outlet before connecting the speakers. Also, turn off the subwoofer.
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. When the “Setup Assistant” (page 8 in the separate “Quick Start Guide”) is running, follow the instructions in the “Setup Assistant” screen for making connections. (Power is not supplied to the speaker terminals while the “Setup Assistant” is running.)
Use speakers with an impedance of 4 – 16 Ω/ohms.
Carry out the following settings when using a speaker with an impedance of 4 – 6 Ω/ohms.
“V.Format:< NTSC>” appears on the display.
“Sp.Imp.:<8ohms>” appears on the display.
6ohms: |
Select when the impedance for any of the connected speakers is 6 Ω/ohms. |
4ohms: |
Select when the impedance for any of the connected speakers is 4 Ω/ohms. |
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.
Connecting the subwoofer
Use a subwoofer cable to connect the subwoofer. Two subwoofers can be connected to this unit.
The same signal is output from the respective subwoofer terminals.
About the cable label (supplied) for channel identification
The channel display section for speaker terminals on the rear panel is color-coded for each channel to be identifiable.
Attach the cable label corresponding to each speaker to each speaker cable.

Attach the cable label for each channel to its speaker cable as shown in the diagram.
Refer to the table and attach the label to each speaker cable.
Then, make connection so that the color of the speaker terminal matches that of the cable label.
How to attach the cable label
Standard connection
This serves as a basic 5.1-channel surround system.
Connecting a front speaker that uses a power amplifier
This unit supports connection of a front speaker that uses an external power amplifier to increase its output.
