Installing Your Speakers—Continued
Before you connect your speakers, read the following:
• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.
•Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other
words, connect positive (+) terminals only to positive (+)
terminals, and negative (–) terminals only to negative (–)
terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the
sound will be out of phase and will sound odd.
• Only use speakers with an impedance of between 8 Ω and
16 Ω. Connecting speakers with an impedance of less than
8 Ω may damage your HT-R510.
• Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect
the sound quality and should be avoided.
• Be careful not to short the positive and
negative connections. Doing so may
damage your HT-R510.
• Don’t connect more than one cable to
each speaker terminal. Doing so may
damage your HT-R510.
• If you want to connect a single speaker instead of a pair of
speakers, don’t connect it to both the left and right speaker
terminals.

1
Strip 3/8" (10 mm) of insu-
lation from the ends of the
speaker cables, and twist
the bare wires tightly, as
shown.
2
While pressing the lever, insert
the wire into the hole, and then
release the lever.
Make sure that the terminals are
gripping the bare wires, not the insu-
lation.
