Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and –
(black) polarities on the speakers being connected to the RCD-CX1,
and be sure to interconnect the channels and polarities correctly.
1
Peel off about 10 mm of sheathing from
the tip of the speaker cable, then either
twist the core wire tightly or terminate
it.
2
Turn
the
speaker
terminal
counterclockwise to loosen it.
3
Insert the speaker cable’s core wire to
the hilt into the speaker terminal.
4
Turn the speaker terminal clockwise to
tighten it.
NOTE
• Use speakers with an impedance of 4 to 16 Ω/ohms. The protection
circuit may be activated if speakers with an impedance other than
specified are used.
• Connect the speaker cables in such a way that they do not stick out
of the speaker terminals. The protection circuit may be activated if
the core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides touch each
other (v “Protection circuit”).
• Never touch the speaker terminals while the power supply is
connected. Doing so could result in electric shock.
Protection circuit
The protection circuit will be activated in thefollowing cases:
• When the speaker cable’s core wires are touching the rear
panel or screws or when the speaker cable’s + and – sides are
touching
• When the surrounding temperature is extremely high
• When the internal temperature rises due to extended use with a
high output
If this happens, unplug the power cord, then check the connections
of the speaker cables and input cables. If the set’s temperature
is extremely high, wait for it to cool off and improve surrounding
ventilation. After doing this, plug the power cord back in.
If the protection circuit is activated though there are no problems
in ventilation around the set or in connections, the set could be
damaged. Turn off the power, then contact a DENON servicing and
inquiry outlet.

• With some record players, noise may be generated when the ground
wire is connected. If so, disconnect the ground wire.
• Set the CARTRIDGE selection switch to “jMM” or “hMC”
according to the cartridge being used.
NOTE
The RCD-CX1’s SIGNAL GND terminal is meant to reduce noise when
a record player is connected. This is not a safety ground terminal.
