Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are faulty,
no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound will be
unnatural and lack bass.
• Before connecting the speakers, make sure that the power of this unit is turned off.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could
damage this unit and/or the speakers.
• Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speakers still creates the interference with the monitor, place the
speakers away from the monitor.

Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8 in) of
insulation from the end of each speaker
cable and twist the exposed wires of the
cable together to eliminate the risk of a
short-circuit.
2
Unscrew the knob.
3
Insert one bare wire into the hole in the side
of each terminal.

Tighten the knob to secure the wire.

Notes on the speaker cord
A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables
running side by side. One cable is colored or shaped
differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridge. Connect
the striped, grooved or ridged cable to the “+” (red)
terminals on this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain
cable to the “–” (black) terminals on this unit and your
speaker.

Connecting the banana plug
(U.S.A., Canada, Australia and General
models only)
First, tighten the knob and then insert the banana plug into
the end of the corresponding terminal.
• One or two speaker sets can be connected to this unit. If you use
only one speaker set, connect it to either the SPEAKERS A or
SPEAKERS B terminals.
• Use speakers with the specified impedance shown on the rear
panel of this unit.
