Connecting Speakers to Back of Amplifier or Receiver
If you connect an amplifier or receiver to your TV as
described on page 46, connect the speakers to the
amplifier/receiver instead of the TV. Sound from the TV
will then come through the amplifier/receiver and the TV's
internal speakers. If desired, you can turn off the TV's
internal speakers with the
SPEAKERS ON/OFF
described on page 12.
The diagram below shows how to connect external
speakers to the speaker terminals on the back of a typical
amplifier/receiver. Check the owner's manual for your
amplifier/receiver if its speaker terminals look different
than those shown below.

Notes: After connecting speaker wire, pull it gently and check that it is
connected securely to its terminals.
Do not allow the wire core to protrude from its terminal or contact other
wires or terminals. If the cores of two wires touch each other, damage to
components could result.
Important: When connecting the speaker wire, make sure you connect
the (+) terminal on the amplifier or receiver to the (+) terminal on the
speaker. One side of the speaker wire is usually marked with a white
stripe to help you connect (+) to (+) and (–) to (–). If the (+) and (–)
terminals are not matched properly, the speakers will not be "in phase"
causing reduction in low frequencies (bass).
Caution: Do not connect external
speakers to more than one audio
source at a time. You can connect a
set of speakers to either the TV or the
amplifier but not to both at the same
time. If you connect the same
speakers to both the TV and the
amplifier (or to more than one set of
terminals), you will probably damage
your equipment.
