Notes on speaker hookup
• Connect the right speaker to the "R" terminals, and
connect the left speaker to the "L" terminals.
• Be sure to match the ends of the speaker cord to the
appropriate terminal on the components: + to + and –
to –. If the cords are reversed, the sound will be
distorted and will lack bass.
• When the maximum input level of the speakers you are
using is low, try to avoid excessive power output from
this unit to the speakers by controlling the volume on
the preamplifier. Continuously playing an audio source
at a level that distorts the audio output may damage the
speakers.
• The speaker terminals on this unit are compatible with
Y lug jack connection (European model only).
