To change the speaker cord

If you want to change the speaker cord, you can
detach the supplied speaker cord from the
connector.

1

Press the connector onto a flat surface.

Make sure that the catcher is at the bottom.

2

Pull the speaker cord from the
connector.

3

Twist the stripped ends of the speaker
cord you want about 10 mm and insert
the speaker cord into the connector.

Make sure that the speaker cord is inserted
according to its polarity : + to + and – to –.
Otherwise the sound will be distorted and
will lack bass.

4

Remove the connector from the flat
surface.

Notes

• Connect the long speaker connecting cords to the

surround speaker terminals and the short speaker
connecting cords to the front and center speaker
terminals.

• To avoid the speaker cord from coming off the

speaker connector
– do not use a smaller-sized speaker cord. We

recommend that you use the AWG24 to AWG18
speaker cord size.

– use the same speaker cord size for all the speaker

connectors.

– twist the stripped ends of the speaker cords.
– insert the speaker cord securely to the back of the

speaker connector.

To avoid short-circuiting the
speakers

Short-circuiting of the speakers may damage
the receiver. To prevent this, make sure to take
the following precautions when connecting the
speakers.

Make sure the stripped ends of each
speaker cord does not touch another
speaker terminal, the stripped end of
another speaker cord, or the metal parts of
the speaker.

Examples of poor conditions of the

speaker cord

Stripped speaker cord is touching another
speaker terminal.

Stripped cords are touching each other
due to excessive removal of insulation.
