SPEAKER SETUP ■ Di-pole speaker layout Either di-pole or direct radiating speaker types can be used for THX surround. If you choose di-pole speakers, please place the surround and surround back speakers according to the speaker layout below. FL C FR A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. One cable is colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridges. Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the "+" (red) terminals on this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain cable to the "-" (black) terminals. 10 mm (3/8") 1 2 SL SR SBL SBR : Di-pole speaker : Direction of di-pole speaker Speaker connections Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), "+" (red) and "-" (black) properly. If the connections are faulty, no sound can be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass. CAUTION • If you intend to use 6-ohm speakers, be sure to set this unit's speaker impedance setting to 6 ohms before using (see page 30). • Before connecting the speakers, make sure that this unit's power is off. • Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit and/or the speakers. • Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speaker still creates interference with the monitor, place the speakers away from the monitor. 1 Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8") of insulation from each of the speaker cables. 2 Twist the exposed wires of the cable together to prevent short circuits. 3 Unscrew the knob. y The supplied speaker terminal wrench is useful for screwing or unscrewing knobs. 4 Insert one bare wire into the hole in the side of each terminal. 5 Tighten the knob to secure the wire. 5 4 3 Red: positive (+) Black: negative (-) Speaker terminal wrench Banana plug connections (With the exception of U.K. and Europe models) First, tighten the knob and then insert the banana plug connector into the end of the corresponding terminal.
