Speaker connection
Here, we connect the speakers in the room to this unit.
This section explains how to connect them using a typical example.
n Normal connection (vpage94)
n Bi-amp connection (vpage95)
n Multi-channel + 2-channel connection (vpage96)
n 11.1-channel connection (vpage97)
n External power amplifier connection (vpage98)
NOTE
•Disconnect this unit’s power plug from the power outlet before connecting the speakers. Also,
turn off the subwoofer.
•Connect so that the speaker cable core wires do not protrude from the speaker terminal. The
protection circuit may be activated if the core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides
touch each other (vpage195 “Protection Circuit”).
•Never touch the speaker terminals while the power supply is connected. Doing so could result
in electric shock. When the “Setup Assistant” is running, follow the instructions in the “Setup
Assistant” screen for making connections. (Power is not supplied to the speaker terminals while
the “Setup Assistant” is running.)
•Use speakers with the speaker impedances shown below.

•Use speakers where one speaker has an impedance of 4 to 16 Ω. When using a speaker with impedance
of 4 Ω or 6 Ω, make sure to set the “Impedance” in the menu (vpage145) to “6 Ω/ohms” or “4 Ω/
ohms”.
•On this unit, you can change how the power amplifiers within this unit are used according to your
environment. For details see “Relationship between the Amp Assign mode settings and audio output”
(vpage177).
Connecting the speaker cables
Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and – (black) polarities on the speakers being
connected to this unit, and be sure to interconnect the channels and polarities correctly.
1
Peel off about 0.03 ft/10 mm of sheathing from the tip of the
speaker cable, then either twist the core wire tightly or terminate
it.
2
Turn the speaker terminal counterclockwise to loosen it.
