Connecting

Other

Components

Carefully

connect

the

plugs

to

the

left

and

right

channel

jacks.

Push

the

plugs

in

all

the

way.

Poor

setting

of

the

plugs

tends

to

cause

hum

or

intermittent

sound

and

may

damage

the

speakers.

NOTE:

While

you

are

connecting

this

unit

to

the

rest

of

your

high

fidelity

system,

please

unplug

the

power

cord,

disconnecting

not

only

this

unit

but

all

the

components,

from

the

AC

outlet.

Do

not

interwind

the

connection

wires

with

the

power

cord.

If

interwound,

the

sound

quality

may

be

degraded.

Connecting

the

Speakers

CAUTION:

The

rated

impedance

of

the

speakers

to

be

connected

should

be

in

the

range

of

4

to

16

ohms.

Connect

the

speaker

wires

carefully

to

the

SPEAKER

terminals

so

as

not

to

mistake

the

left

and

right

channels

or

reverse

the

speaker

polarities

(+

and

—).

Use

sufficiently

thick

wire

(16

gauge

minimum)

with

low

electrical

resistance.

It

is

recommended

that

color

-coded

wires

be

used

for

easy

determination

of

polarities.

Speaker

wires

should

be

as

short

as

possible,

and

the

left

and

the

right

channel

wires

should

have

the

same

length.

Connect

as

follows:

1.

Remove

about

3/4

inch

(20

mm)

of

insulation

from

the

end

of

each

wire

and

twist

the

stands

of

each

conductor.

2.

After

making

sure

of

the

correct

channel

and

polarity,

loosen

the

SPEAKER

terminal

knob

and

insert

the

conductor

directly

into

the

recess

at

the

upper

-left

of

the

terminal.

Then

tighten

the

terminal

knob,

and

the

end

of

speaker

wire

is

automatically

wound

around

the

terminal.
