Quick start guide

Introduction

This ‘Quick start guide’ shows you how to connect your

speakers, TV and DVD player to this receiver, and also

takes you through switching on and playing a DVD disc.

Easy Setup

This section shows you how to connect your speakers,

subwoofer, DVD player and TV to this receiver so you can

start enjoying home cinema sound right away.

Before you start, make sure everything you’re

connecting is switched off and unplugged.

Connecting speakers

This receiver has speaker terminals for front left and

right speakers (

and

in the diagram), a center speaker

(

) and two surround speakers (

and

). The

minimum speaker configuration is just the front left/

right speakers, but we recommend connecting all five if

possible. Note that surround speakers should always be

connected as a pair; do not connect just one surround

speaker. All the speakers you use should have a nominal

impedance between 6–16

Ω.

1 Connect your speakers to the receiver, as shown

in the diagram below.

Prepare the speaker cable by stripping about 1 cm of the

plastic shielding from each speaker wire.

Connect the front speakers to the

FRONT L/R

terminals;

the center speaker to the

CENTER

terminal; and the

surround speakers to the

SURROUND L/R

terminals.

Press on a tab to open a terminal; insert the exposed

wire, then release the tab to secure.

For correct sound it’s important that the positive and

negative terminals of the receiver and each speaker are

matched. To help you do this, attach the supplied

colored self-adhesive labels to one half of each speaker

cable.

2 Connect a powered subwoofer to the

SUBWOOFER OUT jack, as shown in the diagram

below.

Use a standard audio cable with RCA/phono plugs.
