• Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers making sure that like
polarities are matched (® with ®, ® with 0 ) Mismatching of polarities will
result in weak central sound, unclear orientation of the various instruments,
and the sense of direction of the stereo being impaired
• When making connections, take care that none of the individual conductors
of the speaker cord come in contact with adjacent terminals, with other
speaker cord conductors, or with the rear panel
NOTE:
NEVER touch the speaker ter minals when the power is on
Doing so could result in electric shocks
Speaker Impedance
• Speakers with an impedance of from 6 to 16 PJohms can be connected for
use as front and center speakers¸
• Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 _)johms can be connected for use as
surround speakers¸
• Be careful when using two pairs of surround speakers (A + B) at the same
time, since use of speakers with an impedance of less than 8 _)johms will
lead to damage¸
• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of
time at high volumes when speakers with an impedance lower than the
specified impedance are connected¸

• Precautions when
connecting speakers
If a speaker is placed near a
TV or video monitor, the
colors on the screen may
be disturbed by the
speaker's magnetism If
this should happen, move
the speaker away to a
position where it does not
have this effect
