• For installing the speakers, refer to "Speaker
placement" on page 9.
• After installing the speakers, first adjust the
speaker settings according to your environment
and speaker layout. (For details, refer to
"SETTING THE SPEAKER /ROOM EQ SETUP"
on page 43.)
■Surround back speakers
• When using only one surround back speaker,
you should connect it to SURROUND BACK/
MULTI LEFT channel.
• Because this receiver cannot drive the surround
back speakers and the ROOM 2 speakers
simultaneously, you should assign their power
amplifier correctly depending on how to use
them. (For details, refer to "CONNECTING
ROOM 2 OUTS" on page 10 and "When
selecting the AMP Assign" on page 41.)
RD-8504(G)_ENG_091217:RD-8504(G) 2009-12-21 오 11:36 페이지 8
■Front Bi-Amp Connections.
• Some speakers are equipped with two sets of
input terminals, for bi-amplification.
• If no other surround back speakers are used,
you can connect the FRONT and the
SURROUND BACK/MULTI channels to the biamp-capable speakers. (For details, refer to the
operating instructions of your bi-amp-capable
speakers.)
• To drive the bi-amp-capable speakers, you
should assign the power amplifier to "Bi AMP".
■Note :
• Before making bi-amp connections, remove the
short-circuiting bars from the terminals of your
speakers.
Caution :
• Be sure to use the speakers with the impedance
of 6 ohms or above.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each
other or any metal part of this unit. This could
damage this unit and/or the speakers.
• Never touch the speaker terminals while the AC
input cord is connected to the wall AC outlet.

■Connecting speaker wire
1. Strip away approx. 10 mm
(3/8 inch) of wire insulation,
then twist the wire ends
tight.
2. Lossen by turning the
speaker terminal counterclockwise.
Speaker placement
Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the size of
your room and the wall coverings, etc. The typical example
of speaker placement and recommendations are as follows :
■Front left and right speakers and center speaker
• Place the front speakers with their front surfaces as flush
with TV or monitor screen as possible.
• Place the center speaker between the front left and right
speakers and no further from the listening position than
the front speakers.
• Place each speaker so that sound is aimed at the location
of the listener’s ears when at the main listening position.
■Surround left and right speakers
• Place the surround speakers approximately 1 meter (40
inches) above the ear level of a seated listener on the
direct left and right of them or slightly behind.
■Surround back left and right speakers
• Place the surround back speakers at the back facing the
front at a narrower distance than front speakers.
• When using a single surround back speaker, place it at the
rear center facing the front at a slightly higher position (0
to 20 cm ) than the surround speakers.
• We recommend installing the surround back speaker(s) at
a slightly downward facing angle. This effectively prevents
the surround back channel signals from reflecting off the
TV or screen at the front center, resulting in interference
and making the sense of movement from the front to the
back less sharp.
■Subwoofer
• The subwoofer reproduces powerful deep bass sounds.
Place a subwoofer anywhere in the front as desired.
3. Insert the bare part of the
wire.
1. TV or Screen
2. Front left speaker
3. Subwoofer
4. Center speaker
5. Front right speaker
6. Surround left speaker
4. Tighten by turning it
clockwise.
ENGLISH
7. Surround right speaker
8. Surround back left speaker
9. Surround back right speaker
10. Surround center speaker
11. Listening position
■Notes :
• When using a conventional TV, to avoid interference with
the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded front
left and right and center speakers.
• To obtain the best surround effects, the speakers except
the subwoofer should be full range speakers.
7. CONNECTING SUBWOOFER PRE OUT
• To emphasize the deep bass sounds, connect a powered
subwoofer.
9
8. CONNECTING ROOM 2 OUTS
• ROOM 2 playback feature allows you to play a different program source in another room as well as one source in the main
room at the same time.
• For ROOM 2 playback, connect the ROOM 2 OUT jacks to the amplifier, TV, etc. installed in another room, or
connect the ROOM 2 speaker terminals to the speakers.
• Because this receiver cannot drive the surround back speakers and the ROOM 2 speakers simultaneously, you should
ENGLISH
assign their power amplifier correctly depending on how to use them. (For details, refer to "When selecting the AMP Assign"
on page 41.)
■Notes :
• To minimize hum or noise, use high quality connection cords.
• You cannot use the digital audio signal for ROOM 2 playback.
