02 Connecting up Connecting the speakers Make sure you connect the speaker on the right to the right terminal and the speaker on the left to the left terminal. Also make sure the positive and negative (+/-) terminals on the receiver match those on the speakers. You can use speakers with a nominal impedance between 4 Ω to16 Ω. Be sure to complete all connections before connecting this unit to the AC power source. Left speaker CONTROL OUT OUT SIGNAL GND L R PHONO AC IN L SPEAKER • Connect the speakers to the speaker terminals as shown above. Connections for the left speaker are shown. Connect the right speaker in the same way. You can use either bare wire connections to do this (see below). 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 10 mm (3/8 in.) fig. C Important • Please refer to the manual that came with your speakers for details on how to connect the other end of the speaker cables to your speakers. Caution • These speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS live voltage. To prevent the risk of electric shock when connecting or disconnecting the speaker cables, disconnect the power cord before touching any uninsulated parts. • Make sure no exposed speaker wire is touching the rear panel, this may cause the receiver to turn off automatically. Plugging in Make sure to complete all connections before connecting to an AC outlet. • Connect the AC power cord to the AC IN inlet on the rear panel of the receiver, then plug into an AC outlet. 10 En
