Mismatching of polarities will result in weak central sound, unclear orientation of the various instruments, and the sense of direction of the stereo being impaired. • When making connections, take care that none of the individual conductors of the speaker cord come in contact with adjacent terminals, with other speaker cord conductors, or with the rear panel. NOTE: NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the power is on. Doing so could result in electric shocks. Speaker Impedance • When speaker systems A (I) and B (II) are use separately, speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms can be connected for use as front and surround back/ZONE2 speakers. • Be careful when using two pairs of front and Surround Back/ZONE2 speakers (A + B) and (I + II) at the same time, since use of speakers with an impedance of 12 to 16 Ω/ohms. • Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms can be connected for use as center and surround speakers. • The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of time at high volumes when speakers with an impedance lower than the specified impedance are connected. 1.

Speaker system connections
Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers making sure that
like polarities are matched (
with
,
with
). Mismatching of
polarities will result in weak central sound, unclear orientation of
the various instruments, and the sense of direction of the stereo
being impaired.
When making connections, take care that none of the individual
conductors of the speaker cord come in contact with adjacent
terminals, with other speaker cord conductors, or with the rear
panel.
NOTE:
NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the power is on.
Doing so could result in electric shocks.
Speaker Impedance
When speaker systems A (
I
) and B (
II
) are use separately, speakers
with an impedance of 6 to 16
/ohms can be connected for use as
front and surround back/ZONE2 speakers.
Be careful when using two pairs of front and Surround Back/ZONE2
speakers (A + B) and (
I
+
II
) at the same time, since use of
speakers with an impedance of 12 to 16
/ohms.
Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16
/ohms can be connected
for use as center and surround speakers.
The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long
periods of time at high volumes when speakers with an impedance
lower than the specified impedance are connected.
Connecting the speaker cords
1. Loosen by turning
counterclockwise.
2. Insert the cord.
3. Tighten by turning
clockwise.
Connecting banana plugs
Turn clockwise to tighten, then insert the
banana plug.
Banana plug
1. Push the lever.
2. Insert the cord.
3. Return the lever.
