02 5 minute guide 3 Connect your speakers. A complete setup of eight speakers (including the subwoofer) is shown here but everyone's home setup will vary. Simply connect the speakers you have in the manner shown below. The receiver will work with just two stereo speakers (the front speakers in the diagram) but using at least three speakers is recommended, and a complete setup is best. 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 6-16Ω (please see Switching the speaker impedance on page 67 if you plan to use speakers with an impedance of less than 8Ω).

Connect your speakers.
A complete setup of eight speakers (including the subwoofer) is shown here but everyone’s
home setup will vary. Simply connect the speakers you have in the manner shown below. The
receiver will work with just two stereo speakers (the front speakers in the diagram) but using at
least three speakers is recommended, and a complete setup is best.
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 6–16
(please see
Switching the speaker impedance
on page 67 if you plan to use speakers with an
impedance of less than 8
).
If you’re not using a subwoofer, change the front speaker setting (see
Speaker setting
on
page 43) to large.
To use the speaker on your TV as the center speaker (
C
), connect the
CENTER PREOUT
jack
on this unit to the audio input jack on your TV. In this case the center speaker shown is
unnecessary.
If you are using only one surround back speaker, connect the positive wire to the right
channel (
+
) terminal, and the negative wire to the left channel (
) terminal (shown below).
