Bi-Wire coNNectioNs
BI-WIRE connection is a technique for improving sound quality. It connects speaker systems and an amplifier,
using two speaker cables; one for mid-to-high range speakers and another for bass speakers.
It eliminates the influence on a mid-to-high range speaker unit due to back electromotive force generated
by the bass speaker unit.
For BI-WIRE connection, a speaker system must comply
with the BI-WIRE connection specifications. Refer
t
o
the instruction manual supplied with the speaker system.
Connect a mid-to-high range speaker via the SYSTEM A terminals and a bass speaker via the SYSTEM B
terminals. Then set the SPEAKER knob on the front panel in the A+B position.
