Names aNd FuNctioNs Basic coNNectioNs ENGLISH Bi-Wire coNNectioNs BI-WIRE connection is a technique for improving sound quality. It connects speaker systems and an amplifier, using two speaker cables; one for mid-to-high range speakers and another for bass speakers. It eliminates the influence on a mid-to-high range speaker unit due to back electromotive force generated by the bass speaker unit. For BI-WIRE connection, a speaker system must comply with the BI-WIRE connection specifications. Refer to the instruction manual supplied with the speaker system. Connect a mid-to-high range speaker via the SYSTEM A terminals and a bass speaker via the SYSTEM B terminals. Then set the SPEAKER knob on the front panel in the A+B position. adVaNced coNNectioNs coNNectiNg remote coNtrol JacKs The REMOTE CONTROL jacks are for connecting components that are capable of remote control (D.BUS jacks) such as a Marantz CD Player or DVD Player.
