Connecting speakers

Here we connect the speakers in the room to this unit. This section explains how to connect them using typical examples.

NOTE

Disconnect this unit’s power plug from the power outlet before connecting the

speakers. Also, turn off the subwoofer. 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. “Protection circuit” (v p. 140)

Never touch the speaker terminals while the power cord is connected. Doing so

could result in electric shock. Use speakers with an impedance of 4 – 16 Ω/ohms.

Connecting the speaker cables

Connect the speaker cable with a rubber tube (red) to the + speaker terminal (red), and the other cable to the - speaker terminal (black).

Peel off about 10 mm of sheathing from the tip of the

speaker cable, then twist the core wire tightly.

Push the speaker terminal and insert the speaker cable

into the cable insertion slot.

Release your finger from the speaker terminal to fix the

speaker cable.

NOTE

Ensure that only the core wire part of the speaker cable is inserted. Sound cannot

be heard if it is inserted all the way to the protective coating.

When using this unit, we recommend you use a router equipped with the following

See “Wi-Fi Setup” on how to connect to a wireless LAN router. (v p. 100)

functions:

Built-in DHCP server

This function automatically assigns IP addresses on the LAN. Built-in 100BASE-TX switch

When connecting multiple devices, we recommend a switching hub with a speed of 100 Mbps or greater.

Only use a shielded STP or ScTP LAN cable (readily available at electronics

stores). (CAT-5 or greater recommended) The normal shielded-type LAN cable is recommended. If a flat-type cable or

unshielded-type cable is used, other devices could be affected by noise. When using this unit connected to a network with no DHCP function, configure the

IP address, etc. in “Network”. (v p. 98)

NOTE

The types of routers that can be used depend on the ISP. Contact your ISP or a

computer shop for details. This unit is not compatible with PPPoE. A PPPoE compatible router is required if

your contracted line is not set using PPPoE. Do not connect a NETWORK connector directly to the LAN port/ Ethernet

connector on your computer. Various online services may be discontinued without prior notice.
