Connecting Speakers
• Connect the right speaker to the DVD receiver’s right
(R) SPEAKERS terminals. Connect the left speaker to
the DVD receiver’s left (L) SPEAKERS terminal.
• Connect the positive (+) terminal on each speaker to
the corresponding positive (+) terminal on the DVD
receiver. Connect the negative (–) terminal on each
speaker to the corresponding negative (–) terminal on
the DVD receiver. Use the red wires to connect the
positive (+) terminal.
The following illustration shows which speaker should
be connected to each pair of terminals.
Read the following before connecting your speakers:
• You can connect speakers with an impedance of
4
ohms or higher
. If you use speakers with a lower
impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume lev-
els for a long period of time, the built-in protection
circuit may be activated.
• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before
making any connections.
• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other
words, connect positive (+) terminals to only positive
(+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals to only nega-
tive (–) terminals. If you get them the wrong way
around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound
unnatural.
• Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may
affect the sound quality and should be avoided.
• Be careful not to short the
positive and negative wires.
Doing so may damage the AV
receiver.
• Don’t connect more than one
cable to each speaker termi-
nal. Doing so may damage
the AV receiver.
• Don’t connect one speaker to several terminals.

1
Strip 3/8" (10 mm) of insu-
lation from the ends of the
speaker cables, and twist the
bare wires tightly, as shown.

While pressing the lever, insert
the wire into the hole, and then
release the lever.
Make sure that the terminals are
gripping the bare wires, not the
insulation.
