Turn the loop until you have the best reception.
Note:
• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other
terminals, connecting cords and power cord. This could cause poor
reception.
• If reception is poor, connect an outdoor single vinyl-covered wire to
the AM EXT terminal. (Keep the AM loop antenna connected.)
Connecting the Speakers
You can connect the following speakers:
• Two pairs of front speakers to produce normal stereo sound.
• One pair of rear speakers to enjoy the surround effect.
• One center speaker to produce more effective surround effect (to
emphasize human voices).
• One subwoofer to enhance the bass.
IMPORTANT:
After connecting the speakers listed above, set the
speaker setting information properly to obtain the best
possible DSP (Digital Signal Processor ) effect. For
details, see page 11.
For each speaker (except for a subwoofer), connect the (–) and (+)
terminals on the rear panel to the (–) and (+) terminals marked on
the speakers. For connecting a subwoofer, see page 5.
