3 Connecting speakers/subwoofer • (U.S.A. and Canada models only) Under its default settings, the unit is configured for 8-ohm speakers. When connecting 6-ohm speakers, set the unit's speaker impedance to "6 MIN". For details, see "Setting the speaker impedance" in "Owner's Manual". • Use a subwoofer equipped with built-in amplifier. • Before connecting the speakers, remove the unit's power cable from the AC wall outlet and turn off the subwoofer. • Ensure that the core wires of the speaker cable do not touch each other or come into contact with the unit's metal areas. This may damage the unit or the speakers. If the speaker cables short circuit, "Check SP Wires" will appear on the front display when the unit is turned on. ■ Connecting speaker cables Speaker cables have two wires. One is for connecting the negative (-) terminals of the unit and the speaker, and the other is for the positive (+) terminals. If the wires are colored to prevent confusion, connect the black wire to the negative and the other wire to the positive terminals.
