Speaker connection

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

0

speakers. Also, turn off the subwoofer.
Connect so that the speaker cable core wires do not protrude from the speaker

0

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. 116))

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

0

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

0

Connecting the speaker cables

Connect the speaker cable to the + speaker terminal (red) and the ­speaker terminal (black).

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

1

speaker cable, then twist the core wire tightly.

.

Turn the speaker terminal counterclockwise to loosen

2

it.

.

Insert the speaker cable’s core wire to the hilt into the

When using this unit with the broadband router’s DHCP function enabled, this unit

0

automatically performs the IP address setting and other settings. When using this
unit connected to a network with no DHCP function, make the settings for the IP
address, etc., at “Network”. (v

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

functions:

Built-in DHCP server

0

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

0

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

Use only a shielded STP or ScTP LAN cable which is easily available at

0

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

0

unshielded-type cable is used, other devices could be affected by noise.
When using a WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) compatible router, you can connect

0

easily to Wi-Fi by pressing the Wi-Fi CONNECT button (WPS) on this unit. (See
