PREPARATION Connections Connecting speakers Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), "+" (red) and "-" (black) properly. If the connections are faulty, this unit cannot reproduce the input sources accurately. Caution • Before connecting the speakers, make sure that this unit is turned off (see page 25). • Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit and/or the speakers. If the speaker wires are short-circuited, "CHECK SP WIRES" appears in the front panel display when you turn on this unit. • Use the magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speaker still creates interference with the monitor, place the speakers away from the monitor. • If you are to use 6 ohm speakers, be sure to set "SP IMP." to "6Ω MIN" before using this unit (see page 25). 4 ohm speakers can be also used as the front speakers (see page 94). Note A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. Cables are colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridge. Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the "+" (red) terminals of this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain cable to the "-" (black) terminals. EXTRA SP terminals Connect the alternative front speaker system (FRONT B), presence speakers or Zone 2 speakers. To select the function of the speakers connected to the EXTRA SP terminals, set the "EXTRA SP ASSIGN" parameter in "SOUND MENU" (see page 72). y You can also select the function of the speakers connected to the EXTRA SP terminals in "AUTO SETUP" (see page 29).
