Quick start guide
Introduction
This ‘Quick start guide’ shows you how to connect your
speakers, TV and DVD player to this receiver, and also
takes you through switching on and playing a DVD disc.
Easy Setup
This section shows you how to connect your speakers,
subwoofer, DVD player and TV to this receiver so you can
start enjoying home cinema sound right away.
Before you start, make sure everything you’re connecting
is switched off and unplugged.
Connecting speakers
This receiver has speaker terminals for front left and right
speakers (
L
and
R
in the diagram), a center speaker (
C
)
and two surround speakers (
RS
and
LS
). The minimum
speaker configuration is just the front left/right speakers,
but we recommend connecting all five if possible. Note
that surround speakers should always be connected as a
pair; do not connect just one surround speaker. All the
speakers you use should have a nominal impedance
between 6–16
Ω
.
1
Connect your speakers to the receiver, as shown
in the diagram below.
Prepare the speaker cable by stripping about 1 cm of the
plastic shielding from each speaker wire.
Connect the front speakers to the
FRONT L/R
terminals;
the center speaker to the
CENTER
terminal; and the
surround speakers to the
SURROUND L/R
terminals.
Press on a tab to open a terminal; insert the exposed
wire, then release the tab to secure.
For correct sound it’s important that the positive and
negative terminals of the receiver and each speaker are
matched. To help you do this, attach the supplied colored
self-adhesive labels to one half of each speaker cable.
2
Connect a powered subwoofer to the
SUBWOOFER OUT jack, as shown in the diagram
below.
Use a standard audio cable with RCA/phono plugs.
• For XW-HTD525 wireless speaker system only: The
SURROUND PREOUT
terminal is intended for use
with a wireless speaker system. See your wireless
speaker manual for more details on connecting up.
