Speaker Configuration
The following table indicates the channels you should use depending on the number of speakers that you have.
No matter how many speakers you use, a powered subwoofer is recommended for a really powerful and solid bass. To get the best from your surround sound system, you need to set the speaker settings manually (page 31).

Attaching the Speaker Cable Labels
The speaker terminals are color-coded for identification purpose.

• Don’t connect more than one cable to each speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
• Don’t connect one speaker to several terminals.
The supplied speaker cable labels are also color-coded and you should attach them to the positive (+) side of each speaker cable in accordance with the table above. Then all you need to do is to match the color of each label to the corresponding speaker terminal.
Speaker Connection Precautions
Read the following before connecting your speakers:
• You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 6 and 16 ohms. If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in amp protection circuit may be activated.
• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before making any connections.
• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other words, connect positive (+) terminals only to positive (+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals only to negative (–) terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.
• Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.
• Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
• Make sure the metal core of the wire does not have contact with the AV receiver’s rear panel. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
Using a Powered Subwoofer
To find the best position for your subwoofer, while playing a movie or some music with good bass, experiment by placing your subwoofer at various positions within the room, and choose the one that provides the most satisfying results.
Tip
• If your subwoofer is unpowered and you’re using an external amplifier, connect the subwoofer pre out jack to an input on the amplifier.

• The AV receiver must be turned on for recording. Recording is not possible while it’s in Standby mode.
• If you want to record directly from your TV or playback VCR to the recording VCR without going through the AV receiver, connect the TV/VCR’s audio and video outputs directly to the recording VCR’s audio and video inputs. See the manuals supplied with your TV and VCR for details.
• Video signals connected to composite video inputs can be recorded only via composite video outputs. If your TV/VCR is connected to a composite video input, the recording VCR must be connected to a composite video output.
• The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot be recorded.
• Copy-protected Blu-ray discs and DVDs cannot be recorded.
• Sources connected to a digital input cannot be recorded. Only analog inputs can be recorded.
• DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs.
