Connecting Speakers

This section explains how to connect speakers to this unit. After you finish connecting your speakers, use the SET MENU to change the
signal output settings according to the number and size of the speakers in your configuration.
Before connecting any speaker cords, identify which terminals are for the right and left channels and also the + and – polarities. If you
connect speakers with the wrong polarity (+ to –), this unit will not reproduce clear sound.

About the q RF (AC-3) signal input jack
If your LD player has an q RF (AC-3) signal output jack, connect it to the q RF (AC-3) input jack on this unit. For this connection,
change SET MENU item 7D. COAXIAL IN (10) to "LD-RF". If q RF (AC-3) and analog signals are input at the same time, priority is
given to the RF signals. When you want to reproduce q RF (AC-3) signals, set the input mode to "D.D. RF" using INPUT MODE.

Using speaker cords
A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. One of
the cables is colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove, or ridge.
To make sure you always connect speakers with the correct polarity, determine the
difference between the cables of your speaker cord, make a note of which cable
you plan to use for which polarity (+ and –), and always connect the speaker cords
consistently.
1 Strip off 9 mm (3/8 in.) of an inch of insulation from the ends of the cables. 1
2 Twist the exposed wires of the cable together to prevent short circuits.

3 3 Loosen the terminal knob by turning it counterclockwise.
4 Insert only the exposed portion of the cable into the slot in the side of the
4
terminal, and tighten the terminal knob.
Note:
• If your speaker cords have banana plugs, tighten the terminal knob and insert the
plug into the end of the terminal. (Except for Europe and U.K. models)
Caution:
• Connect the speaker cords with care to avoid creating a short circuit. If you turn on
the power and there is a short circuit, this unit may be damaged even though the
protection circuit automatically shuts off the power.
<For China and General models only.>
Note:
• q RF (AC-3) signals cannot be output using the REC OUT selector. When you record
sound or images from an LD player, be sure to connect the player to either the DIGITAL
OPTICAL or analog AUDIO jacks.
Caution:
• Even if you connect an LD player with an q RF (AC-3) output jack to this unit, you
cannot reproduce Dolby Digital sound from all LD discs. You must playback an LD disc
encoded with Dolby Digital signals in order to take advantage of the Dolby Digital
sound.
