2 Connecting speakers

Connect the speakers placed in your room to the unit. The following diagrams provide connections for a 5.1-channel system as an example. For other systems, connect speakers

while referring to the connection diagram for the 5.1-channel system.

Notice

▪ Remove the unit’s power cable from an AC wall outlet and turn off the subwoofer before connecting the speakers.

▪ The speaker has the polarity (+/-). Connect the speaker cable correctly between the positive (+) terminal of the unit and the speaker, and also between the negative (-) terminal of them.

Precaution for connecting of the speaker cables

Improper connecting of the speaker cables may cause short circuit and

also damage the unit or the speakers.

▪ Twist the bare wires of the speaker cables

firmly together.

▪ Do not let the core wires of the speaker cable

touch one another.

▪ Do not let the core wires of the speaker cable

come into contact with the unit’s metal parts

(rear panel and screws).

If “Check SP Wires” appear on the front display when the unit is turned

on, turn off the unit, and then check the speaker cables short circuit.

Connecting speaker cables

Speaker cables have two wires. One is for connecting the negative (-) terminal of the

unit and the speaker, and the other is for the positive (+) terminal. If the wires are

colored to prevent confusion, connect the black wire to the negative and the other wire

to the positive terminal.

1

Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8”) of insulation from the ends of

the speaker cable, and twist the bare wires of the cable firmly

together.

2

Loosen the speaker terminal.

3

Insert the bare wires of the cable into the gap on the side (upper

right or bottom left) of the terminal.

Note

Surround speakers or Zone B speakers cannot be used during bi-amp connections.

Connecting Zone B speakers

The Zone A/B function allows you to playback an input source in the room where the

unit is installed (Zone A) and in another room (Zone B). To connect the Zone B

speakers, see “Playing back music in multiple rooms” (p.

78).

Note

Surround speakers or bi-amp speakers cannot be used during Zone B connections.
