Connecting speakers
Notes about speaker cables
oUse commercially-available speaker cables to connect the
speakers.
oUse the shortest speaker cables possible. The longer the cable, the
greater the resistance value and the more that damping perfor-
mance is reduced. Moreover, length also increases inductance and
capacitance, degrading the sound quality of high frequencies.
oUse left and right speaker cables that have the same length.
How to connect speaker cables
Use commercially-available speaker cables to connect the + terminal
of the unit to the + terminal of the speaker and the − terminal of the
unit to the − terminal of the speaker.
oUse speakers with at least 4Ω impedance.
oIf the exposed tip of the core wire of a speaker cable contacts
another cord or terminal, a short could occur.
Never allow a speaker cable to short.
oDo not connect more than one amplifier to a speaker.
oDo not bundle speaker cables with power cords. Doing so could
cause noise.
VThe power plug should always be disconnected
when connecting speaker cables.

Connecting using ES-LINK Analog
ES-LINK Analog overview
The current transmission method utilizes the performance of HCLD
buffer circuits that feature the ability to supply strong current at high
speed. This suppresses the impact of impedance on signal paths,
enabling pure and powerful transmission of signals.
oUse connection cables that are shielded and balanced.
oOrdinary balanced cables (with XLR connectors) are used for
connection. These connectors can only be used with compatible
devices, however, because the transmission format is unique.
