Aiwa AV-X120 - Manual (Page 5)

Speaker terminais
Connect front speakers (system A and/or B), a center speaker
and surround speakers to the corresponding speaker terminals
on the unit:
- the front speaker cords to the FRONT SPEAKERS terminals
- the center speaker cord to the CENTER SPEAKER terminals
- the surround speaker cords to the SURROUND SPEAKERS
terminals.
For more powerful bass, connect a sub woofer with a built-in
amplifier to the SUPER WOOFER “1 jack.
Speaker impedance
• Front and center speakers
The SPEAKER IMPEDANCE SELECTOR on the rear should be
set to the position that matches the impedance value of the front
and center speakers.
When using 4 ohm speakers, set the selector to 4£2. When using
8 ohm speakers, set the selector to 8Q. Please unplug the AC
cord before setting the selector.
• Surround speakers and super woofer
The SPEAKER IMPEDANCE SELECTOR has no effect on the
SURROUND SPEAKERS terminals and the SUPER WOOFER
jack. For the surround speakers and sub woofer, use speakers
of 8 ohms or more.
Connecting + to +, - to - terminals
To get the proper sound effect, the speaker terminals on the unit
and the speaker should be connected with proper polarity; the -i-
terminal on the unit should be connected to the -i- terminal on
the speaker (and - to -).
CONNECTING SPEAKERS ®
• Be sure to connect the speaker cords correctly as shown in
the illustration on the right column. Improper connections can
cause short circuits in the SPEAKER(S) terminals.
• Do not leave objects generating magnetism near the speakers.
• When using a sub woofer, select the speaker system A (see
page 6). Otherwise no sound can be heard from it.
POSITIONING THE SPEAKERS
Position the speakers to make the most of the Dolby Pro Logic
or DSP effect (see “DOLBY PRO LOGIC”).
