CONNECTING DIGITAL INs

• The OPTICAL and the COAXIAL DIGITAL OUTs of

the components that are connected to this unit can be
connected to these DIGITAL INs.

• A digital input should be connected to the components

such as a CD player, DVD player, etc. capable of
outputting DTS Digital Surround, Dolby Digital or PCM
format digital signals, etc.

• When making the COAXIAL DIGITAL connection, be

sure to use a 75 Ω COAXIAL cord, not a conventional
AUDIO cord.

Notes :
• Be sure to make either a OPTICAL or a COAXIAL DIGITAL connection on each component. (You don’t need to do both.)
• If you connect the DIGITAL INs to your components, you should assign the DIGITAL INs correctly. (For details, refer to

“When SAT, TV, AUX is selected as an input source” on page 14.)

5.

CONNECTING SPEAKERS

• Be sure to connect speakers firmly and

correctly according to the channel (left
and right) and the polarity (+ and -). If the
connections are faulty, no sound will be
heard from the speakers, and if the polarity
of the speaker connection is incorrect, the
sound will be unnatural and lack bass.

• For installing the speakers, refer to “Speaker

placement” on page 8.

• After installing the speakers, first adjust

the speaker settings according to your
environment and speaker layout. (For details,
refer to “Setting the speaker setup” on page
20.)

• Depending on whether the type of your

subwoofer is the passive subwoofer or active
(powered) subwoofer, connect it as follows :

* Connect the SUBWOOFER terminals to the

passive subwoofer.

* Connect the SUBWOOFER PREOUT jack

to the active subwoofer. (For details, refer to
“CONNECTING PREOUTs” below.)

Caution :

• Be sure to use the speakers with the

impedance of 6 ohms or above.

• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each

other or any metal part of this unit. This could
damage this unit and/or the speakers.

• Never touch the speaker terminals while the AC input cord is connected to the wall AC outlet. Doing so could result in

electric shocks.

Connecting speaker wire

1. Strip away approx. 10

mm (3/8 inch) of wire
insulation, then twist the
wire ends tight.

2. Loosen by turning

the speaker terminal
counter-clockwise.

3. Insert the bare part of

the wire.

4. Tighten by turning it

clockwise.
