Connecting up

6

En

• When using speakers with removable network

circuits, note that if the network is removed, no

effect will be produced and damage may be caused

to the speaker.

• Another method of connection is to connect the

SPEAKERS A

terminals to HIGH and the SPEAKERS

B

terminals to LOW (reverse that shown in the

illustration).

Connecting speaker cables

1

Twist the cable cores.

2

Loosen the nut on the SPEAKERS

terminal, and insert the speaker cable into
the exposed hole in the terminal shaft.

3

Retighten the terminal nut.

Caution

• When using only one set of speaker terminals

(SPEAKERS A or SPEAKERS B), or when utilizing
bi-wiring connections, the speaker used should
have a nominal impedance between 4

Ω and

16

Ω. When using both sets of terminals, the

connected speakers should have nominal
impedance between 8

Ω and 32 Ω. Consult the

instructions accompanying your speakers for
details regarding the impedance value.

• Make sure the positive and negative (+/–) terminals

on the amplifier match those on the speakers.

• These speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS live

voltage

. To prevent the risk of electric shock when

connecting or disconnecting the speaker cables,

disconnect the power cord before touching any

uninsulated parts.

• Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is twisted

together and inserted fully into the speaker

terminal. If any of the bare speaker wire touches the

back panel it may cause the power to cut off as a

safety measure.

Connecting audio cables

Connect the white plug to the left (L) jack, and the red

plug to the right (R) jack. Be sure to insert the plugs fully

into the jacks.

Using centralized control with other
Pioneer components

Multiple Pioneer components equipped with CONTROL
IN/OUT

jacks can be connected to the unit, allowing

centralized control of the components via the remote

sensor on the unit. This also allows remote control of

components not equipped with a remote sensor, or

installed in places where the component’s remote

sensor cannot be accessed.

Note

• For connections use a commercially available

monaural miniplug cord (without resistor).

• When connecting the CONTROL IN/OUT jacks,

commercially available audio cords must also be

used to make analog connections. Merely

connecting the CONTROL IN/OUT jacks alone will

not allow proper system control.

• When a control cord is connected to the unit’s

CONTROL IN

jack, the unit cannot be controlled by

pointing the remote control at the unit (the remote

sensor is automatically disabled).

Digital audio input connections (A-70
only)

If a coaxial digital cable (sold separately) is used to

connect this unit’s DIGITAL IN COAXIAL terminal to the

digital audio output connector of a digital audio playback

component, the playback component can be used to

play music through this unit.
For more information regarding the output of audio

signals input to the DIGITAL IN COAXIAL terminal,

consult page 12.

Note

• Digital signal formats that can be input to this unit

include linear PCM signals with sampling rate and

quantitative bits up to 192 kHz/32 bits. (Depending

on the connected device and environment,

operation may not be successful).
