Connecting the terminals

Speaker impedance

After confirming the speaker impedance indications printed on the
rear panel of the receiver, connect speakers with matching impedance
ratings. Using speakers with a rated impedance other than that
indicated on the rear panel of the receiver could result in malfunctions
or damage to the speakers or receiver.

• Never short circuit the + and – speaker cords.
• If the left and right speakers are connected inversely or the speaker

cords are connected with reversed polarity, the sound will be
unnatural with ambiguous acoustic imaging. Be sure to connect the
speakers correctly.

Connecting the antennas

AM loop antenna

The supplied loop antenna is for use indoors. Place it as far as possible
from the receiver, TV set, speaker cords and power cord, and adjust
the direction for best reception.

FM indoor antenna

The supplied indoor antenna is for temporary use only. For stable
signal reception we recommend using an outdoor antenna. Disconnect
the indoor antenna when you connect one outdoors.

FM outdoor antenna

Lead the 75

Ω coaxial cable connected to the FM outdoor antenna into

the room and connect it to the FM 75

Ω terminal.

Speaker placement

Front speakers : Place to the front left and right of the listening
position. Front speakers are required for all surround modes.
Center speaker : Place front and center. This speaker stabilizes the
sound image and helps recreate sound motion. Required for surround
playback.
Surround speakers : Place to the direct left and right, or slightly
behind, the listening position at even heights, approximately 1 meter
above the ears of the listeners. These speakers recreate sound
motion and atmosphere. Required for surround playback.
Subwoofer : Reproduces powerful deep bass sounds.

• Although the ideal surround system consists of all the speakers

listed above, if you don't have a center speaker or a subwoofer, you
can divide those signals between the available speakers in the
speaker settings steps to obtain the best possible surround
reproduction from the speakers you have available.
