Getting Started
This section explains how to connect speakers, recording
equipment, antennas and network.
For other connections, see the sections below.
NOTE
• Do not plug in the power cord until all connections have been
completed.
• When making connections, also refer to the owner’s manual of the
other components.
• Be sure to connect the left and right channels properly (left with left,
right with right).
• Do not bundle power supply cords together with connection cables.
Doing so can result in humming or noise.

Connecting the speaker cables
Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and –
(black) polarities on the speakers being connected to the unit, and be
sure to connect the channels and polarities correctly.
1
Peel off about 10 mm of sheathing
from the tip of the speaker cable, then
either twist the core wire tightly or
apply solder to it.
2
Turn the speaker terminal
counterclockwise to loosen it.
3
Insert the speaker cable’s core wire to
all the way into the speaker terminal.
4
Turn the speaker terminal clockwise
to tighten it.
NOTE
• Use speakers with an impedance of 4 to 16 Ω. The protection circuit
may be activated if speakers with an impedance other than specifi ed
are used.
• Connect the speaker cables so they do not stick out of the speaker
terminals. The protection circuit may be activated if the wires
touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides touch each other
(vpage6 “Protection circuit”).
• Never touch the speaker terminals while the power supply is
connected. Doing so could result in electric shock.
• When you connect optional speakers (SC-N7) to this unit, you can
perform the fi lter setting for optimal sound quality output (vpage35
“Using an optimizing fi lter”).
