Connections
Caution
• A speaker cable is a pair
of
insulated cables running side by side in general. One
of
the cables is colored differently
or striped to indicate a polarity. Connect one end
of
the colored/striped cable to the
"+"
(red) terminal
of
this unit
and the other end to that
of
your speaker, and connect one end
of
the other cable to the
"-"
(black) terminal
of
this
unit and the other end
to
that
of
your speaker.
• Before connecting the speakers, be sure to disconnect the power cable.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other
or
any metal part
of
this unit. This could damage this unit and/or
speakers.
If
the circuit shorts out, "CHECK SP WIRES!" appears on the front panel display when this unit
is
turned
on.
•
If
images on the monitor (CRT) are distorted, place the speakers away from the video monitor.
If
it does not work,
use magnetically shielded speakers.
• Use speakers with an impedance
of
6-ohm or larger. Set speaker impedance in the advanced setup menu before
connecting the speakers (page 64).
You
can also use 4-ohm speakers as the front speakers when you set
"SP
IMP." to
"6QMIN".
• Connecting speaker cables
1 Remove approximately 10 mm (0.4 in)
of
insulation from the end
of
each speaker
cable and then
twist
bare wires
of
the cable
together
so
that
they
will
not
cause a
short
circuits.
• Using bi-amplification
connections
You
can make bi-amplification connections to one speaker
system which supports bi-amplification connection as
shown below.
To
activate the connections, set "BI-AMP"
to "ON" in the advanced setup menu (page 64).

Caution
Before making bi-amplification connections, remove
any brackets or cables that connect a woofer with a
tweeter. Refer to the instruction manuals
of
speakers for
details.
When not making bi-amplification connections, make
sure that the brackets or cables are connected before
connecting the speaker cables.
Note
•
You
cannot use surround back speakers or extra speakers (presence and
Zone2 speakers) when bi-amplification connections are made.
