Connecting up
Connecting the speakers
The receiver will work with just two stereo speakers (the front speakers in the diagram) but using
at least five speakers is recommended, and a complete setup is best for surround sound.
To achieve the comfortable surround sound, install your speakers as shown below.
7.2 channel surorund system:
L – Front Left
C – Center
R – Front Right
SL – Surround Left
SR – Surround Right
SBL – Surround back Left
SBR – Surround back Right
SW – Subwoofer
Connecting the speaker cables
Make sure you connect the speaker on
the right to the right (R) terminal and the
speaker on the left to the left (L) terminal.
Also make sure the positive and negative
(+/–) terminals on the receiver match those
on the speakers.
1 Twist exposed wire strands together.
2 Loosen terminal and insert exposed

CAUTION
• Before making or changing

Note
• If you have two subwoofers, the second subwoofer can be connected to the SUBWOOFER 2
terminal. Connecting two subwoofers increases the bass sound to achieve more powerful
sound reproduction. In this case, the same sound is output from the two subwoofers.
• This unit supports speakers with a nominal impedance of 4 W to 16 W.
Important
• Illustration shows the SC-LX86, however connections for the SC-LX76 are the same except
where noted.
After installing the speakers, connect them as shown below.
