In other words, connect positive (+) terminals only to positive (+) terminals, and negative (-) terminals only to negative (-) terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural. • Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided. • Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the receiver. • Make sure the metal core of the wire does not have contact with the receiver's rear panel. Doing so may damage the receiver. To connect the subwoofer: 1 Using a subwoofer RCA cable, connect the AV receiver's SUBWOOFER PRE OUT jack to an input on your powered subwoofer, as shown. Front right speaker Front left speaker Center speaker • Don't connect more than one cable to each speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the receiver. • Don't connect one speaker to several terminals. To connect the speaker cables: 1 Strip 1/2" to 5/8" (12 to 15 mm) of insulation from the ends of the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly, as shown. 2 Loosen the speaker terminals on the receiver and insert the speaker wires into the terminals. The following illustration shows which speaker should be connected to each pair of terminals. 3 Tighten the terminals to secure the wire. Powered subwoofer Surround right speaker Surround left speaker Tips • If you are using banana plugs, tighten the speaker terminal before inserting the banana plug. • Do not insert the speaker wire directly into the center hole of the speaker terminal. Connecting devices Warning Do not plug the AC cord into the AC outlet until all connections are completed. Notes • • Be sure to observe the color coding when connecting audio and speaker cords. Make connections firmly and correctly. Failure to do this can cause loss of sound, add noise to the sound, or damage your receiver. Connecting the antenna This section explains how to connect the supplied indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna. The receiver won't pick up any radio signals without any antenna connected, so you must connect the antenna to use the tuner.
