We recommend positioning the speakers before connecting them. Use one of the five connection examples below according to the speaker layout/usage pattern selected.1 Use commercially available speaker cords to make the connections. Bare wire connections Make sure that the speaker cable you're going to use is properly prepared with about 10 mm (3/8 in.) of insulator stripped from each wire, and the exposed wire strands twisted together (fig. A). To connect a terminal, unscrew the terminal a few turns until there is enough space to insert the exposed wire (fig. B). Once the wire is in position, tighten the terminal until the wire is firmly clamped (fig. C). (fig. A) (fig. B) (fig. C) 10 mm (3/8 in.) Banana plug connections If you want to use speaker cables terminated with banana plugs, screw the speaker terminal fully shut, then plug the banana plug into the end of the speaker terminal. Features: Up to 7.2-channel playback in the normal listening room plus stereo playback of the same sound in another room (for example a kitchen). Furthermore, different front speakers can be used for movies (multichannel playback) and music (stereo playback). Speakers used: Total 9 (4 front, 1 center, 2 surround, 2 surround back) Applicable listening rooms: When there is a main listening room + a kitchen, etc. Output Setup: 7.2ch + Speaker B Important • Before connecting the equipment, make sure that the power is turned off and the power cords are unplugged from the power outlets. Note 1 • You can use speakers with a nominal impedance between 6 Ω and 16 Ω (or between 4 Ω and 16 Ω for the R1/L1 terminals). • Each speaker connection on the receiver comprises a positive (+) and negative (-) terminal. Make sure to match these up with the terminals on the speakers themselves. • Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is twisted together and inserted fully into the speaker terminal. If any of the bare speaker wire touches the back panel it may cause the power to cut off as a safety measure. 11 En
