Chapter 2:
Connecting your equipment
Placing the speakers
By connecting the left and right front speakers (
L
/
R
), the center speaker (
C
), the left and right
surround speakers (
SL
/
SR
), and the subwoofer (
SW
), a 5.1 ch surround system can be enjoyed.
To achieve the best possible surround sound, install your speakers as shown below.
Hints on the speaker placement
Where you put your speakers in the room has a big effect on the quality of the sound. The
following guidelines should help you to get the best sound from your system.
• The subwoofer can be placed on the floor. Ideally, the other speakers should be at about
ear-level when you’re listening to them. Putting the speakers on the floor (except the
subwoofer), or mounting them very high on a wall is not recommended.
Speakers installed to the right and left should be separated by about 1.8 m to 2.7 m (6 ft.
to 8.9 ft.) distance. They should be installed at equal distances from the television, and at
equal heights from the floor.
If you’re going to place speakers around your CRT TV, place the speakers at a sufficient
distance from your CRT TV.
• If you’re using a center speaker, place the front speakers at a wider angle. If not, place
them at a narrower angle.
Place the center speaker above or below the TV so that the sound of the center channel is
localized at the TV screen. Also, make sure the center speaker does not cross the line
formed by the leading edge of the front left and right speakers.
• It is best to angle the speakers towards the listening position. The angle depends on the
size of the room. Use less of an angle for bigger rooms.
Surround speakers should be positioned 60 cm to 90 cm (2 ft. to 3 ft.) higher than your ears
and titled slight downward. Make sure the speakers don’t face each other. For DVD-Audio,
the speakers should be more directly behind the listener than for home theater playback.
• Try not to place the surround speakers farther away from the listening position than the
front and center speakers. Doing so can weaken the surround sound effect.
CAUTION
Make sure that all speakers are securely installed. This not only improves sound quality,
but also reduces the risk of damage or injury resulting from speakers being knocked over
or falling in the event of external shocks such as earthquakes.

Connecting the speakers
The receiver will work with just two stereo speakers (the front speakers in the diagram) but
using at least three speakers is recommended, and a complete setup is best for surround
sound.
Make sure you connect the speaker on the right to the right (R) terminal and the speaker on
the left to the left (L) terminal. Also make sure the positive and negative (+/) terminals on the
receiver match those on the speakers.
You can use speakers with a nominal impedance between 6
and 16
.
Be sure to complete all connections before connecting this unit to the AC power source.
Bare wire connections
CAUTION
• These speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS LIVE voltage. To prevent the risk of electric
shock when connecting or disconnecting the speaker cables, disconnect the power cord
before touching any uninsulated parts.
• Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is inserted fully into the speaker terminal. If any
of the bare speaker wire touches the back panel it may cause the power to cut off as a
safety measure.
1 Push open the tabs and insert exposed
wire.
2 Release the tabs.
