Connections LOUDSPEAKERS Check the impedance of your speakers. When using a pair of speakers, you can use types with an impedance of between 4 and 8 Ohms. When using two pairs of speakers, you must use types with an impedance of 8 Ohms each, see later section. The red coloured speaker terminals are positive (+) and the black speaker terminals are negative (-). Make sure correct polarity is maintained at each speaker connector or the sound can become weak and “phasey” with little bass.
SPEAKER B CONNECTIONS The Speaker B connections on the back of the amplifier allow for a second set of speakers to be used (i.e. speakers located in another room). The Speaker A/B button on the front panel and remote control allows the two sets of speakers to be toggled on and off. Refer to the Front Panel or Remote Control section of this manual for more information on the Speaker A/B operation. Either A or B, or both A and B may be selected for use.
