Speaker System Connections; Speaker Impedance; Connecting The Speaker Cords - Denon AVR-1802 Operating Instructions Manual

l
Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers making sure that like
polarities are matched (@ with CB. 8 with 8). Mismatching of polarities will
result in weak central sound, unclear orientation of the various instruments,
and the sense of direction of the stereo being impaired.
l
When making connections, take care that none of the individual conductors
of the speaker cord come in contact with adjacent 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
l
When speaker systems A and B are use separately, speakers with an
impedance of 6 to 16 n/ohms can be connected for use as front speakers.
l
Be careful when using two pairs of front speakers (A + B) at the same time,
since use of speakers with an impedance of 12 to 16 R/ohms.
l
Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 R/ohms can be connected for use
as center and surround speakers.
l
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
Connecting the weaker cords
1. Loosen by turning
counterclockwise.
2. Insert the cord. 3. Tighten by turning
clockwise.
Connecting banana plugs
Turn clockwise to tighten, then insert the
banana plug.

If a speaker is placed near a TV or video monitor, the
colors on the screen may be disturbed by the
speaker's magnetism. If this should happen, move

effect, use a unit that can sufficiently
reproduce frequencies of under 80 Hz.
