Connecting the speakers

A complete setup of six speakers (including the
subwoofer) is shown here but everyone’s home
setup will vary. Simply connect the speakers
you have in the manner shown below. The
receiver will work with just two stereo speakers
(the front speakers in the diagram) but using at
least three speakers is recommended, and a
complete setup is best for surround sound. If
you’re not using a subwoofer, change the front
speaker setting (see

Speaker Setting

on

page 42) to

LARGE

.

Make sure you connect the speaker on the
right to the right terminal and the speaker on
the left to the left terminal. Also make sure the
positive and negative (

+

/

) terminals on the

receiver match those on the speakers. You can
use speakers with a nominal impedance
between 6

to 16

(please see

Switching the

speaker impedance

on page 70 if you plan to

use speakers with an impedance of less than
8

).

You can use the speakers connected to the B
speaker terminals to listen to stereo playback
in another room. Make sure to review

Hints on

speaker placement

on page 21 when placing

the speakers in another room. See

Switching

the speaker system

on page 22 for the listening

options with this setup.

Be sure to complete all connections before
connecting this unit to the AC power source.

The illustration shows the VSX-918V, but connections for the VSX-818V are the same.
