Denon AVR-1602 Operating Instructions Manual page 13

• Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers making sure that like
polarities are matched (_) with _), 0 with 0) Mismatching of polarities will
resLllt in weak central sound, unclear orientation of the various
instruments,
and the sense of direction of the stereo being impaired¸
• When making connections, take care that none of the individual conductors
of the speaker cord come in contact with adiacent terminals, with other
speaker cord conductors, or with the rear panel¸
NOTE:
NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the power is on,
Doing so could result in electric shocks
Speaker Impedance
• When speaker systems A and B are use separately, speakers with an
impedance of 6 to 16 _)/uhms can be connected for use as front speakers
• Be careful when using two pairs of front speakers (A + B) at the same time,
since use of speakers with an mpedance of 12 to 16 _ohms
• Speakers with an mpedance of 6 to 16 _£/uhms can be connected for use
as center and surround speakers
• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of
time at high volumes when speakers with an impedance lower than the
specified impedance are connected

• Precautions when connecting speakers
If a speaker is placed near a TV or video monitoE, the
colors on the screen may be disturbed by the
speaker's magnetism¸ If this should happen, move
the speaker away to a position where it does not
have this effect¸
