Speaker impedance
To enjoy multi channel surround, connect front,
center, surround, and surround back speakers
with a nominal impedance of 8 ohms or higher,
and set the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR to
“8
Ω
”. Check the operating instructions
supplied with your speakers if you’re not sure
of their impedance. (This information is
usually printed on a label on the back of the
speaker.)
You may connect a pair of speakers with a
nominal impedance between 4 and 8 ohms to
all of the speaker terminals. However, even if
one speaker within this range is connected, set
the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR to “4
Ω
”.
Note
Be sure to turn the power off when setting the
IMPEDANCE SELECTOR.
