2 English www.pioneerelectronics.com/Home IMPORTANT NOTICE: The serial number for the equipment is located on the rear of the product. Please write this serial number on the warranty sheet and keep it in a secure area for future reference. BEFORE USE • Thank you for buying this Pioneer® product. • Check your AV Receiver specifications for supported Dolby Atmos speaker configurations. • To assure maximum performance from your new speakers, please read through this operating guide before you install or use them. After you have finished reading this operating guide, store it in a safe place for future reference. • The nominal impedance of this speaker system is 6 ohms. Connect the speaker system to a stereo amplifier with a load impedance rating ranging from 4 to 6 ohms (a model with "4-16Ω" displayed on the speaker output terminals). • In order to prevent damage to the speaker system resulting from input overload, please observe the following precautions: - Do not supply power to the speaker system in excess of the maximum rated power. - When connecting or disconnecting cables, be sure amplifier power is OFF. - Do not use excessive amplifier volume if using a graphic equalizer to emphasize high or low frequencies. CONNECTING YOUR SYSTEM IMPORTANT: Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any connections. Correct wiring of your compact speakers is essential for achieving the best sound quality. Be careful to ensure proper polarity of connection. We recommend a minimum of 18 gauge for runs up to 25 feet, and thicker for longer runs. Most compact speaker cable is coded to ease this task. Typically the ribbed or striped side, or the side with the connector marked in red or white, is connected to the positive (red) terminal. Make sure that the amplifier positive (red) terminal is connected to the compact speaker positive (red) terminal, and that the amplifier negative (black) terminal is connected to the compact speaker negative (black) terminal. If the wires you're using are not already terminated with banana plugs, spade lugs, etc., strip off ½" of insulation from the ends of the cable, twist the bare strands and insert into the binding posts. Take care that no stray strands of wire short across between the terminals. Connect the cable from the front left or front right channel, or the rear left or rear right channel, to the bottom set of binding posts on the speaker. If you are using the height channel drivers in the SP-BS22A-LR for Dolby Atmos® or another surround sound technology with height channels, connect the cables for the corresponding height channel (left front height channel of the receiver or amp to the left front speaker's height channel input, right rear height channel of the receiver or amp to the right rear speaker, etc.) as seen below. IMPORTANT: The top binding posts are for height channels only. They must be driven from the channels on your Dolby Atmos enabled receiver allocated for height, and with bass management engaged that filters off any signals below 180 Hz.These extra biding posts are NOT intended for biamping.Failure to follow these instructions may result in damage to the top drivers and void your warranty.
