Getting Started
CAUTION:
• Make all connections before plugging the System into an AC power outlet.
• Handling the speakers As this is a precision instrument, handle it carefully so as to protect it from shocks.
Connecting the Speakers (SP-VSDT2000)
These speakers are exclusively for this system. Using with other devices will damege the speakers.
1. Open each of the terminals to connect the speaker wire leads.
2. Connect the speaker cords to the Speaker terminals of the Unit. Connect the cords with a black line to the (–) terminals and cords without a black line to the (+) terminals.
3. Close each of the terminals to securely connect the cords.
Right side (rear view) Left side (rear view)
• Since both speakers are the same, you can put either one to the right or left side.
• Do not connect other speakers to the Unit. The difference of the load impedance causes failures.
• Do not use the supplied speakers in parallel with other speakers.
