Connecting speakers LS-101 speakers or speakers with 4-8Ω nominal impedance VV Precautions when making connections oo After all connections are complete, connect the power cord's plug to the AC wall outlet. oo Read the instructions of each device that you intend to use with this unit. NOTE oo When connecting speakers other than the LS-101, use speakers with 4-8Ω nominal impedance. If speakers with different impedance ratings are used, the protection circuit could operate, causing sound output to stop. oo The red speaker terminals are positive (+) and the black speaker terminals are negative (-). Generally, the + wire of the speaker cable is marked to distinguish it from the - wire of the cable. Connect the marked wire to the red + terminal and the unmarked wire to the black - terminal. oo If the exposed core wires at the tips of the speaker cables should touch other cables or terminals, an electrical short might occur. Never allow speaker cables to cause a short. oo Be sure to insert each plug securely. To prevent hum and noise, avoid bundling the cables together with the AC power cord or other cables. 1 Turn the terminal cap counter- clockwise to loosen it. The speaker terminal caps cannot be fully removed from the unit. 2 Insert the wire into the terminal and turn the terminal cap clockwise to securely connect it. oo Make sure none of the wire insulation is under the terminal and only the bare, stripped wire is touching the terminal. 3 Confirm that the cable is fastened securely by gently pulling the cable. 10

Connecting speakers
V
Precautions when making
connections
o
After all connections are complete, connect
the power cord’s plug to the AC wall outlet°
o
Read the instructions of each device that
you intend to use with this unit°
NOTE
o
When connecting speakers other than
the LS-101, use speakers with 4–8Ω nom-
inal impedance° If speakers with different
impedance ratings are used, the protection
circuit could operate, causing sound output
to stop°
o
The red speaker terminals are positive (+)
and the black speaker terminals are nega-
tive (–)° Generally, the + wire of the speaker
cable is marked to distinguish it from the –
wire of the cable° Connect the marked wire
to the red + terminal and the unmarked
wire to the black – terminal°
o
If the exposed core wires at the tips of the
speaker cables should touch other cables
or terminals, an electrical short might occur°
Never allow speaker cables to cause a short°
o
Be sure to insert each plug securely° To pre-
vent hum and noise, avoid bundling the
cables together with the AC power cord or
other cables°
1
Turn the terminal cap counter-
clockwise to loosen it. The speaker
terminal caps cannot be fully
removed from the unit.
2
Insert the wire into the terminal
and turn the terminal cap clockwise
to securely connect it.
o
Make sure none of the wire insulation
is under the terminal and only the bare,
stripped wire is touching the terminal°
3
Confirm that the cable is fastened
securely by gently pulling the
cable.
