CONNECTING THE SPEAKERS FOR STEREO OPERATION (1 SYSTEM) Your two speakers should be identical, if possible, to obtain optimum results. Experts agree that a perfectly matched system offers the best stereophonic reproduction. The speakers should be placed along the same wall approximately 8 to 10 feet apart depending upon room size and furniture placement. It may be necessary to experiment with speaker placement until best results are obtained. Use any type of wire to connect your speakers to your receiver. Lamp cord "zip cord" is excellent and may be easily dressed around the molding for an inconspicuous and neat installation. Do not drive the staples or tacks through the center of the wire for this may short out the two sections and will decrease the overall volume or short out the speakers entirely. II- is permissible to use approximately 50 feet of speaker connecting wire for each speaker without loss of volume. CONNECT SPEAKERS WITH CARE. AVOID SHORTS - THE RECEIVER HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO PREVENT DAMAGE FROM ACCIDENTAL SHORTING; HOWEVER, REPETITIVE SHORTING CAN DAMAGE TRANSISTORS. 1. Connect one length of lamp cord to the left speaker. This is the speaker on your left as you face the speakers. 2. Attach the other end of the lamp cord to the terminals marked SYSTEM I LEFT located on the rear of the receiver. 3. Similarly connect another length of lamp cord to your right speaker. 4. Attach the other end of the lamp cord to the terminals marked SYSTEM 1 RIGHT. 5. Your receiver is now connected for one-system stereo operation and is operative when the SPKR-1 switch on the front panel is in the on position. 1-SYSTEM I LEFT GND GND RIGHT e( 0/0 0 0 e r---- SYSTEM 2 LEFT GND GND RIGHT 0 0 0 0 %001 s ref SYSTEM I CAUTION !
