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.
CAUTION
o
When not connecting LS-101HR speakers, 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.
o
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.
o
The metal portions of the two separate wires should
not touch. If they touch an electrical short might occur.
Shorted wires can create a fire hazard or cause equip-
ment failure.
Never allow speaker cables to cause a short.
o
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.
How to connect speakers
1
Turn the terminal cap counterclockwise 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.
