Getting Started
Speaker System Hookups
Overview
This section describes how to connect your speakers to
the amplifier. Front (left and right) speakers are
required but centre and rear speakers are optional. The
centre and rear speakers enhance the surround effects.
Connecting the superwoofer will increase bass
response.
For specific locations of the terminals, see the
illustration below.
For optimum surround sound effect, place your
speakers as shown below.
What cords will I need?
Speaker cord (1 for each speaker)
Twist the stripped ends of the cord about 2/3 inch (15 mm).
Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate
terminal on the components: + to + and – to –. If the cords
are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass.
