Connecting speakers Connecting speakers Caution: Connect only speakers with an impedance between 4 and 16 Ω to the TX-DS898. If the impedance of even one speaker is between 4 and 6 Ω, be sure to set the speaker impedance setting accordingly (see page 28). Notes: • When you are using only one speaker or when you wish to listen to monaural (mono) sound, a single speaker should never be connected in parallel to both the right and left-channel terminals simultaneously. Connecting the speaker cable 1. Strip away 5/8 inch (15 mm) of wire insulation. 2. Twist wire ends very tight. 3. Unscrew 4. Insert wire 5.

NO! • Be sure to connect the positive and negative cables for the speakers properly. If they are mixed up, the left and right signals will be reversed and the audio will sound unnatural. • Do not connect more than one speaker cable to one speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the TX-DS898. • Connect either your surround back speakers or the speakers you will be using in the remote zone (Zone 2) to the SURR BACK SPEAKERS/ZONE 2 SPEAKERS terminals (see page 21).
