AM Antenna Connections
Connecting the Speakers
For full enjoyment of the THX modes (see page 51), it is
recommended to use THX-certified speakers.
You can connect the following speakers:
• Two pairs of front speakers to produce normal stereo sound.
• One pair of surround speakers to produce a three-dimensional
sound movement and environmental background-effect sounds.
• One or one pair of surround back speakers to enjoy 6.1-channel or
7.1-channel sound reproduction. A pair of the speakers is required
to use THX Ultra2 Cinema and THX Music modes.
• One center speaker to produce a rich sound image by stabilizing
the sound localization (also used to emphasize human voices).
• One powered subwoofer to enhance the bass and to reproduce the
LFE channel recorded in multi-channel software.
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 10.
CAUTIONS:
Use only the speakers of the SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by
the speaker terminals.
•
When connecting to both of the FRONT 1 and FRONT 2 / ZONE
2 SPEAKERS terminals,
use speakers with an impedance of
8
Ω
to 16
Ω
.
•
When connecting to either the FRONT 1 or FRONT 2 / ZONE 2
SPEAKERS terminals,
use speakers with an impedance of
4
Ω
to 16
Ω
.

Notes:
• If the AM loop antenna wire is covered with vinyl,
remove the vinyl by twisting it as shown in the diagram.
• 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.)
