Connecting Your Speakers, continued
Do not plug in the receiver to AC power until all
connections have been made.
To Connect Front Speakers Only:
If you only intend to listen to stereo sound (as
opposed to surround sound), you may simply
connect a single pair of speakers. To do so:
1. Loosen the speaker wire binding posts.
2. Insert the wire from the positive jack on the
RIGHT FRONT speaker into the U-shaped slot in
the base of the positive RIGHT FRONT post. Lay
the wire to the right of the post; that way, when
you tighten the binding post, it will naturally
twist the wire into the best connection. Tighten
the post. Repeat for the negative wire on the
RIGHT FRONT speaker as shown to the right.
3. Repeat step 2 for the positive and negative wires
on the LEFT FRONT speaker.
To Connect Front and Surround Sound
Speakers:
To listen to the full surround sound that this
receiver can put out, connect front speakers, center,
left surround, and right surround speakers. To do so:
1. Loosen the speaker wire binding posts.
2. Follow the steps under “To Connect Front
Speakers Only” on this page to connect the
RIGHT and LEFT FRONT speakers.
3. Insert the wire from the positive jack on the
CENTER speaker into the U-shaped slot in the base
of the positive CENTER post, as shown to the right.
Tighten the post. Repeat for the negative wire.
4. Insert the wire from the positive jack on the
RIGHT SURROUND speaker into the U-shaped
slot on the base of the positive RIGHT SUR-
ROUND post. Tighten the post. Repeat for the
negative wire.
5. Repeat step 4 for the positive and negative wires
on the LEFT SURROUND speaker.
What if I Have a Powered Subwoofer?
Simply connect the subwoofer’s audio cable to the
receiver’s subwoofer PRE OUT jack as shown to the
left.
Never short circuit the + and - speaker wires.
Do not switch the left and right speaker wires or
swap the + and - wires on the binding posts.
The speakers must have a nominal impedance of
between 6 and 16.
