Connecting the speaker system to the amplifier
Before connecting—
• Turn off the power to the amplifier before connecting the
speaker system; otherwise, the speakers may be damaged.
• The impedance of each speaker is 8
Ω
. Before connecting
them to your amplifier, check the speaker impedance range
of your amplifier. If the impedance of this speaker is out of
the speaker impedance range indicated on the amplifier, you
cannot connect this system to the amplifier.
• The maximum power handling capacity of the SP-F303 is
100 W. Excessive input will result in abnormal noise and
possible damage.
• Be sure to turn down the volume level to prevent unwanted
noise before performing following operations:
– Turning on or off other components,
– Operating the amplifier,
– Tuning FM stations,
– Fast-forwarding a tape,
– Continuously reproducing high frequency oscillation or
high pitch electronic sounds.
• When using a microphone, do not aim it at the speakers or
use it near the speakers; otherwise, the howling which
occurs may damage the speakers.
• Before replacing the cartridge, always turn off the power to
the turntable; otherwise, the clicking noise may damage the
speakers.

Typical connection method to an amplifier
Connect the speakers to a “SPEAKER” terminal of the amplifier
with the speaker cords by referring to the diagram below.
• Make sure to match the polarity (

and
·
) when
connecting the speaker cords.
• The diagram below is an example of a typical connection
method.
