Conventional connection
1 Loosen the knobs of the “FULL RANGE” terminals.
2 Fit the speaker cords into the grooves of the “FULL
RANGE” terminals, then tighten the knobs to secure the
speaker cords and short-circuit plates.
7
Bi-wiring connection
This speaker is bi-wireable. Comparing with the conventional
connection, the bi-wiring connection makes the sound field
larger, deeper, and richer.
1 Loosen all speaker terminal knobs and detach the
short-circuit plates.
2 Connect the “FULL RANGE” terminals and “LOW
FREQUENCY” terminals separately to the speaker
terminals of the amplifier.

Connecting the speaker system to the amplifier
Before connecting:
• Make sure to match the polarity (
ª and ·) when connecting
the speaker cords.
• Turn off the power to the amplifier before connecting the
speaker system; otherwise, the speakers may be damaged.
• The impedance of each speaker is 6 Ω.
If this does not match with the speaker impedance range
indicated on the amplifier, you cannot connect this system to
the amplifier.
• The maximum power handling capacity of the SX-L77 is
180 W. Excessive input will result in abnormal noise and
possible damage.
• Be sure to turn down the volume level on the amplifier to
prevent unwanted noise before performing following
operations:
– Turning on or off other components
– Operating the amplifier
– Tuning FM stations
– Fast-forwarding a tape
– Continuously reproducing high frequency oscillation or high
pitch electronic sounds
– Connecting or disconnecting a microphone
• When using a microphone, do not aim it at the speakers or
use it near the speakers; otherwise, the howling which occurs
may damage the speakers.
• Before replacing the cartridge, always turn off the power both
to the amplifier and to the turntable; otherwise, the clicking
noise may damage the speakers.
• Use speaker cords as follows;
– Buy thick speaker cords rather than thin cords, and make
them as short as possible for connection.
– Use speaker cords of the same length for both left and right
speakers.
– Do not use long speaker cords; otherwise, the sound quality
may deteriorate.
– Using a special speaker cord such as a litz wire, a coaxial
cable, or a cord which has the specified connecting
directionality may influence the sound quality.

Connecting the speaker cord
Connect the “INPUT” terminal of the speaker to the speaker
terminal of the amplifier.
Rotate the speaker terminal
knob counterclockwise and fit
the speaker cord into the
groove. Then rotate the knob
clockwise to secure the cord.
• Make sure to match the polarity ( ª and ·); otherwise, the
surround effect will become less effective.
