LISTENING TO MUSIC USING BI-WIRING
Bi-wiring can be used to connect speakers using two pairs of speaker cables to connect the unit and speaker
system.
Before making connections, check that the speaker system supports bi-wiring.
What is Bi-Wiring?
Bi-wiring is a technique used to improve sound quality where separate speaker cables are used to connect
to terminals for the low-end and mid-range frequencies.
This connection method can help eliminate interference in the mid-range caused by back-EMF generated by
the speaker unit used for the low-end.
Note:
Be sure to set the same fi lter for both Speaker A and Speaker B when listening to music on speakers connected
using bi-wiring. (See “SETTING AMP CHARACTERISTICS” on page 27)

Note:
Be sure to remove the short plate connecting the LF and MF/HF connectors on the speaker. Failure to do so may
result in fi re and/or damage to the equipment during use.
