Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) 
channels and + (red) and – (black) polarities 
on the speakers being connected to the 
this unit, and be sure to interconnect the 
channels and polarities correctly.
Connecting the speaker cables
Peel off about 10 mm of sheathing from the tip 
of the speaker cable, then either twist the core 
wire tightly or terminate it.
NOTE
• Connect so that the speaker cable core wires 
do not protrude from the speaker terminal. 
The protection circuit may be activated if the 
core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and – 
sides touch each other (vpage50 “Protection 
Circuit”).
• Never touch the speaker terminals while the 
power supply is connected. Doing so could 
result in electric shock.
• Use speakers with the speaker impedances 
shown below.
