About connecting speaker cord

The connectors of the speaker cords are the same colour as the jacks to be connected.
There are 2 types of speaker cord for surround speaker. You can change the surround speaker cord
depending on the type of speaker connection.

Tip

• You can remove the speaker cords (for wired connection) from the connector. With the catch facing down, press

and hold the connector down against a flat surface (1) and remove the speaker cords from the connector (2).

• You cannot remove the speaker cords (for wireless connection) from the connector.

To avoid short-circuiting the speakers

Short-circuiting of the speakers may damage the system. To prevent this, be sure to follow these
precautions when connecting the speakers. Make sure the bare wire of each speaker cord does not touch
another speaker terminal or the bare wire of another speaker cord, such as shown below.

Note

Be sure to match the speaker cords to the appropriate speaker terminals: 3 to +, and # to –. If the cords
are reversed, the sound will lack bass and may be distorted.
