Setting the speaker impedance
Under its default settings, the unit is configured for 8-ohm

Connecting speaker cables
Speaker cables have two wires. One is for connecting the
negative (-) terminal of the unit and the speaker, and the
other is for the positive (+) terminal. If the wires are
colored to prevent confusion, connect the black wire to the
negative and the other wire to the positive terminal.
a
Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8”) of insulation from the ends of
the speaker cable and twist the bare wires of the cable firmly together.
b
Loosen the speaker terminal.
c
Insert the bare wires of the cable into the gap on the side (upper
right or bottom left) of the terminal.
d
Tighten the terminal.
■
Bi-wire connection
Bi-wire connection separates the woofer from the
combined midrange and tweeter section. A bi-wire
compatible speaker has four binding post terminals. These
two sets of terminals allow the speaker to be split into two
independent sections. With these connections, the mid and
high frequency drivers are connected to one set of terminals
and the low frequency driver to another set of terminals.
Connect the other speaker to the other set of terminals in
the same way.
When making bi-wire connections, remove the shorting bridges
or cables on the speaker.
y
To use the bi-wire connections, press SPEAKERS A and
SPEAKERS B on the front panel or on the remote control so that
both SP A and B light up on the front display.
