ENGLISH
Connecting Antennas (FM)
AM outdoor antenna
If the AM loop antenna provided does not deliver suf ficient
reception (often due to being too far from the transmitter or in a
concrete building, etc.), it may be necessary to use an outdoor AM
antenna.
Use either a high quality commercially available AM antenna or,
if not available, an insulated wire more than 16 ft (5 m) long, strip
one end, and connect this to the terminal as shown above.
The antenna wire should be strung outdoors or indoors near a
window. For better reception, connect the GND terminal to a
reliable ground.
< Even when using an outdoor AM antenna, do not disconnect the
AM loop antenna.
FM indoor antenna
Connect the supplied lead-type FM antenna to the FM 75Ω
socket and extend the lead.
Adjust the antenna in a suitable location like a window frame or
wall which gives the best reception and then fix the antenna in
that position with thumb tacks or the like.
FM outdoor antenna
In an area where FM signals are weak, it will be necessary to use a
75 Ω unbalanced-type outdoor FM antenna. Generally, a 3-element
antenna will be sufficient; if you live in an area where the FM signals
are particularly weak, it may be necessary to use one with 5 or more
elements.
< Disconnect the FM indoor antenna when using an FM outdoor
antenna.

Speaker Connection
Subwoofer
After all connections are complete, connect the power cord’s plug to the AC wall socket.
< Read the instructions of each component you intend to use with this unit.
< Be sure to connect each plug securely. To prevent hum and noise, do not bundle the connection cords.
Before connection
Check the impedance of your speakers. Connect speaker with an
impedance of 4 Ω or more.
The black speaker terminals are “_” (negative).
Generally, the “+” side of the speaker cable is marked to make
it distinguishable from the “_” side of the cable. Connect this
marked side to the “+” terminal and the unmarked side to the
black “_” terminal.
Prepare the speaker cables for connection by stripping of f
approximately 3/8” (10 mm) or less of the outer insulation.
Twist the strands of the stripped wires tightly together:
CAUTION
The metal portions of the two separate wires should not touch or
an electrical short can occur. Removing too much insulation may
lead to a short circuit if the bared wired should come in contact
with each other. Shorted wires can create a fire hazard or induce a
failure in your equipment.
How to connect
1. Turn the terminal cap counterclockwise to loosen it. The speaker
terminal caps cannot be fully removed from the base.
2. Insert the wire into the terminal fully and turn the terminal cap
clockwise to securely connect it:
Make sure none of the wire insulation is under the terminal, only
the bare, stripped wire.
3. Make sure it is fastened firmly by pulling the cable lightly.
