Speaker connection

Here, we connect the speakers in the room to this unit.
This section explains how to connect them using a typical example.

n Connecting 5.1-channel speakers (

vpage 45

)

n Connecting 2.1-channel speakers (

vpage 46

)

n Connecting a front speaker that uses a power amplifier (

vpage 47

)

NOTE

Disconnect this unit’s power plug from the power outlet before connecting the speakers. Also,

turn off the subwoofer.

Connect so that the speaker cable core wires do not protrude from the speaker terminal. The

protection circuit may be activated if the core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides
touch each other (

vpage 90

“Protection circuit”).

Never touch the speaker terminals while the power supply is connected. Doing so could result

in electric shock. When the “Setup Assistant” is running, follow the instructions in the “Setup
Assistant” screen for making connections. (Power is not supplied to the speaker terminals while
the “Setup Assistant” is running.)

Use speakers with the speaker impedances shown below.
