SPEAKER CONNECTIONS
7
Connect the left-side loudspeaker to the left-channel speaker terminals and
the right side loudspeaker to the right-channel speaker terminals of this unit,
take care to observe c) and (-) polarity. If the polarity of one speaker is
reversed, the speakers will be out of phase, causing a loss in bass response
and unstable, irregular stereo imaging.
Double-check to make sure that both speaker have the same polarity.
. It is recommended that you use high-quality, heavy gauge speaker cable
with low resistance. Designed specially for audio applications, using thin
cable with high resistance may impair sound quality and prevent the
amplifier from delivering its full potential
. The speaker cables for both channels should be approximately equal in
length, as a marked difference can result in improper left/right balance.
