Connecting Speakers - Onkyo CS-245BT Instruction Manual

Connecting FM Antenna
■ Using a TV / FM Antenna Splitter
It's best not to use the same antenna for both FM and TV
reception, as this can cause interference problems.
If circumstances demand it, use a TV / FM antenna
splitter, as shown.

Connecting Speakers

CD receiver
Remove the precut insulation from the ends of the
speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly.
Push the lever to open the hole, insert the bare wire into
the hole, and then release the lever.
Make sure that the speaker terminals are gripping the
bare wires, not the insulation.
• Connect the right speaker to the CD receiver's right
(R) SPEAKERS terminals. Connect the left speaker to
the left (L) SPEAKERS terminals.

• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. Connect
positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals,
and negative (–) terminals to only negative (–)
terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the
sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.
• Use the red line wires to connect the positive (+)
terminals.
• Do not connect anything other than the included
speakers (D-T05). We cannot take responsibility for
malfunctions or poor results if this CD receiver is used
with any other speakers.
• Do not connect both speaker cables to the same L or R
terminals. Do not connect more than two speaker
terminals to each speaker.
• Be careful not to short the positive and
negative wires.
Doing so may damage the CD receiver
and/or speakers.
