Carefully check the left (L) and right (R)
channels and + (red) and – (black) polarities
on the speakers being connected to the
this unit, and be sure to interconnect the
channels and polarities correctly.
Connecting the speaker cables
Peel off about 10 mm of sheathing from the tip
of the speaker cable, then either twist the core
wire tightly or terminate it.
NOTE
• 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 72 “Protection
Circuit”).
• Never touch the speaker terminals while the
power supply is connected. Doing so could
result in electric shock.
• Use speakers with the speaker impedances
shown below.
