Placing the speakers
By connecting the left and right front speakers ( L/R), the center speaker (C), the left and right surround speakers ( SL/SR), and the subwoofer (SW), a 5.1 ch surround system can be enjoyed.
Further, by using an external amplifier, you can connect the left and right surround back speakers ( SBL/SBR) or the left and right front height speaker (FHL/FHR) to boost your system up to a 7.1 ch surround system.
• You can also connect one surround back speaker ( SB) and enjoy a 6.1 ch surround system.
To achieve the best possible surround sound, install your speakers as shown below.

Hints on the speaker placement
Where you put your speakers in the room has a big effect on the quality of the sound. The following guidelines should help you to get the best sound from your system.
• The subwoofer can be placed on the floor. Ideally, the other speakers should be at about ear-level when you’re listening to them. Putting the speakers on the floor (except the subwoofer), or mounting them very high on a wall is not recommended.
• For the best stereo effect, place the front speakers 2 m to 3 m (6 ft. to 9 ft.) apart, at equal distance from the TV.
• If you’re going to place speakers around your CRT TV, use shielded speakers or place the speakers at a sufficient distance from your CRT TV.
• If you’re using a center speaker, place the front speakers at a wider angle. If not, place them at a narrower angle.
• Place the center speaker above or below the TV so that the sound of the center channel is localized at the TV screen. Also, make sure the center speaker does not cross the line formed by the leading edge of the front left and right speakers.
• It is best to angle the speakers towards the listening position. The angle depends on the size of the room. Use less of an angle for bigger rooms.
• Surround and surround back speakers should be positioned 60 cm to 90 cm (2 ft. to 3 ft.) higher than your ears and titled slight downward. Make sure the speakers don’t face each other. For DVD-Audio, the speakers should be more directly behind the listener than for home theater playback.
• If the surround speakers cannot be set directly to the side of the listening position with a
7.1-channel system, the surround effect can be enhanced by turning off the Up Mix function (see Setting the Up Mix function on page 31).
• Try not to place the surround speakers farther away from the listening position than the front and center speakers. Doing so can weaken the surround sound effect.
• Place the left and right front height speakers at least one meter directly above the left and right front speakers.
CAUTION
• Make sure that all speakers are securely installed. This not only improves sound quality, but also reduces the risk of damage or injury resulting from speakers being knocked over or falling in the event of external shocks such as earthquakes.
Important
• To connect the surround back or front height speakers, an additional amplifier is required.
Connect the additional amplifier to the PRE OUT SURR BACK/FRONT HEIGHT outputs of this unit and connect the surround back or front height speakers to the additional amplifier
(see Connect the surround back or front height speakers on page 11).
10
En
a. This layout is available only when the additional amplifier is connected to the unit and the surround back or front height speakers are connected to the amplifier. For details, see Connect
the surround back or front height speakers on page 11.
Connecting your equipment
Connecting the speakers
The receiver will work with just two stereo speakers (the front speakers in the diagram) but using at least three speakers is recommended, and a complete setup is best for surround sound.
Make sure you connect the speaker on the right to the right ( R) terminal and the speaker on the left to the left ( L) terminal. Also make sure the positive and negative (+/–) terminals on the receiver match those on the speakers.
You can use the speakers connected to the B speaker terminals to listen to stereo playback in another room. See Switching the speaker system on page 12 for the listening options with this setup.
You can use speakers with a normal impedance between 6
Ω and 16 Ω.
However, note that only the front speakers are set to a value between 12
Ω and 16 Ω if you select SP AB in Switching the speaker system on page 12.
Be sure to complete all connections before connecting this unit to the AC power source.

CAUTION
• These speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS LIVE voltage. To prevent the risk of electric shock when connecting or disconnecting the speaker cables, disconnect the power cord before touching any uninsulated parts.
• Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is twisted together and inserted fully into the speaker terminal. If any of the bare speaker wire touches the back panel it may cause the power to cut off as a safety measure.
Connect the surround back or front height speakers
Connect the PRE OUT SURR BACK/FRONT HEIGHT outputs of the unit and additional amplifier to add a surround back or front height speaker.
• The Pre Out setting must be set if the above connections are performed. Select
SURR.BACK if the surround back speaker is connected and HEIGHT if the front height speaker is connected (If neither the surround back speaker nor the front height speaker is connected, either setting will suffice) (see The Pre Out Setting on page 37).
• You can use the additional amplifier on the surround back channel pre-outs for a single speaker as well. In this case plug the amplifier into the left ( L (Single)) terminal only.

Using the component video jacks
Component video should deliver superior picture quality when compared to composite video.
A further advantage (if your source and TV are both compatible) is progressive-scan video, which delivers a very stable, flicker-free picture. See the manuals that came with your TV and source component to check whether they are compatible with progressive-scan video.
• For the audio connection, refer to Connecting your component with no HDMI terminal on page 15.
Important
• If you connect any source component to the receiver using a component video input, you must also have your TV connected to this receiver’s COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT jacks.
• If necessary, assign the component video inputs to the input source you’ve connected.
This only needs to be done if you didn’t connect according to the following defaults:
COMPONENT VIDEO IN 1: DVD
COMPONENT VIDEO IN 2: DVR/BDR

Plugging in the receiver
Only plug in after you have connected all your components to this receiver, including the speakers.
Plug the AC power cord into a convenient AC power outlet.
CAUTION
• Handle the power cord by the plug part. Do not pull out the plug by tugging the cord, and never touch the power cord when your hands are wet, as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Do not place the unit, a piece of furniture, or other object on the power cord or pinch the cord in any other way. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cables. The power cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause a fire or give you an electric shock.
Check the power cord once in a while. If you find it damaged, ask your nearest Pioneer authorized independent service company for a replacement.
• The receiver should be disconnected by removing the mains plug from the wall socket when not in regular use, e.g., when on vacation.
Note
• After this receiver is connected to an AC outlet, a 2 second to 10 second HDMI initialization process begins.
You cannot carry out any operations during this process.
The HDMI indicator in the front panel display blinks during this process, and you can turn on this receiver once it has stopped blinking. When you set the Control with HDMI to OFF, you can skip this process. For details about the Control with HDMI feature, see Control with
HDMI function on page 38.

Basic Setup
Canceling the demo display
The display on the front panel shows various information
(demo displays) when the receiver is not operating.
You can turn off the demo display. For details, see The FL
Demo Mode menu on page 37.
• The demo mode is canceled automatically when the Auto
MCACC setup is performed (see below).
Automatically setting up for surround sound
(MCACC)
The Auto Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration (MCACC) setup measures the acoustic characteristics of your listening area, taking into account ambient noise, speaker size and distance, and tests for both channel delay and channel level.
After you have set up the microphone provided with your system, the receiver uses the information from a series of test tones to optimize the speaker settings and equalization for your particular room.
CAUTION
• The test tones used in the Auto MCACC setup are output at high volume.
Important
• The OSD will not appear if you have connected using the
HDMI output to your TV. Use composite or connections for system setup.
• The Auto MCACC setup will overwrite any existing speaker settings you’ve made.
• Before using the Auto MCACC setup, the iPod USB input should not be selected as an input source.
• If you connected either the surround back speaker or the front height speaker, make sure that the Pre Out setting is correctly set before performing the Auto MCACC setup
(see page 37). (Here is an explanation using the OSD screen for a surround back speaker connection.)

System Setup menu.
The settings made in the Auto MCACC setup should give you excellent surround sound from your system, but it is also possible to adjust these settings manually using the System
Setup menu (starting on page 34).
Note
• Depending on the characteristics of your room, sometimes identical speakers with cone sizes of around
12 cm (5 inches) will end up with different size settings.
You can correct the setting manually using the Speaker
Setting on page 34.
• The subwoofer distance setting may be farther than the actual distance from the listening position. This setting should be accurate (taking delay and room characteristics into account) and generally does not need to be changed.
Other problems when using the Auto MCACC setup
If the room environment is not optimal for the Auto MCACC setup (too much background noise, echo off the walls, obstacles blocking the speakers from the microphone) the final settings may be incorrect. Check for household appliances (air conditioner, fridge, fan, etc.), that may be affecting the environment and switch them off if necessary.
If there are any instructions showing in the front panel display, please follow them.
• Some older TVs may interfere with the operation of the microphone. If this seems to be happening, switch off the
TV when doing the Auto MCACC setup.

Start by switching on the playback component (for example a
DVD player), your TV and subwoofer (if you have one), then the receiver (press RECEIVER).
• Make sure the setup microphone is disconnected.
2 Switch the TV input to the input that connects this receiver.
For example, if you connected this receiver to the VIDEO jacks on your TV, make sure that the VIDEO input is now selected.
3 Press input function buttons to select the input function you want to play.
• The input of the receiver will switch over, and you will be able to operate other components using the remote control. To operate the receiver, first press RECEIVER on the remote control, then press the appropriate button to operate.
• The input source can also be selected by using INPUT
SELECT buttons on the remote control, or by using the front panel INPUT SELECTOR dial. In this case, the remote control won’t switch operational modes.
If you selected the proper input source and there is still no sound, select the audio input signal for playback (see
Selecting the audio input signal below).
4 Press AUTO/DIRECT to select ‘AUTO SURROUND’ and start playback of the source.
If you’re playing a Dolby Digital or DTS surround sound DVD disc, with a digital audio connection, you should hear surround sound. If you’re playing a stereo source or if the connection is an analog audio connection, you will only hear sound from the front left/right speakers in the default listening mode.
It is possible to check on the front panel display whether or not surround sound playback is being performed properly.
When using a surround back speaker, 2D+PLIIx is displayed when playing Dolby Digital 5.1-channel signals, and DTS+NEO:6 is displayed when playing DTS 5.1-channel signals.
When not using a surround back speaker, 2D is displayed when playing Dolby Digital signals.
If the display does not correspond to the input signal and listening mode, check the connections and settings.
Note
• You may need to check the digital audio output settings on your DVD player or digital satellite receiver. It should be set to output Dolby Digital, DTS and 88.2 kHz/96 kHz
PCM (2 channel) audio, and if there is an MPEG audio option, set this to convert the MPEG audio to PCM.
• Depending on your DVD player or source discs, you may only get digital 2 channel stereo and analog sound. In this case, the receiver must be set to a multichannel listening mode if you want multichannel surround sound.
5 Use MASTER VOLUME to adjust the volume level.
Turn down the volume of your TV so that all sound is coming from the speakers connected to this receiver.
Selecting the audio input signal
The audio input signal can be selected for each input source.
Once it is set, the audio input that was selected will be applied whenever you select the input source using the input function buttons.

Better sound using Phase Control
This receiver’s Phase Control feature uses phase correction measures to make sure your sound source arrives at the listening position in phase, preventing unwanted distortion and/or coloring of the sound.
Phase Control technology provides coherent sound reproduction through the use of phase matching for an optimal sound image at your listening position. The default setting is on and we recommend leaving Phase Control switched on for all sound sources.

Note
• Phase matching is a very important factor in achieving proper sound reproduction. If two waveforms are ‘in phase’, they crest and trough together, resulting in increased amplitude, clarity and presence of the sound signal. If a crest of a wave meets a trough, then the sound will be ‘out of phase’ and an unreliable sound image will be produced.
• If your subwoofer has a phase control switch, set it to the plus (+) sign (or 0°). However, the effect you can actually feel when Phase Control is set to ON on this receiver depends on the type of your subwoofer. Set your subwoofer to maximize the effect. It is also recommended you try changing the orientation or the place of your subwoofer.
• Set the built-in lowpass filter switch of your subwoofer to
OFF. If this cannot be done on your subwoofer, set the cutoff frequency to a higher value.
• If the speaker distance is not properly set, you may not have a maximized Phase Control effect.
• The Phase Control mode cannot be set to ON in the following cases:
When the PURE DIRECT mode is switched on.
When the headphones are connected.
Using surround back channel processing
You can have the receiver automatically use 6.1 or 7.1 decoding for 6.1 encoded sources (for example, Dolby Digital
EX or DTS-ES), or you can choose to always use 6.1 or 7.1 decoding (for example, with 5.1 encoded material). With 5.1 encoded sources, a surround back channel will be generated, but the material may sound better in the 5.1 format for which it was originally encoded (in which case, you can simply switch surround back channel processing off).
• With a 7.1-channel surround system, audio signals that have undergone matrix decoding processing through surround back channel processing to which the Up Mix function is added are output from the surround back speakers.

The Up Mix function mixes the sound of the surround speakers with the surround back speakers so that the surround sound is heard from diagonally to the rear as it should be.
• Using the Up Mix function is effective when the speakers in the 7.1-channel surround system are set up as recommended in the example on page 10.
• Depending on the positions of the speakers and the sound source, in some cases it may not be possible to achieve good results. In this case, set the setting to OFF.

Use / to select the size (and number) of each of the following speakers:
The System Setup menu
• Front – Select LARGE if your front speakers reproduce bass frequencies effectively, or if you didn’t connect a subwoofer. Select SMALL to send the bass frequencies to the subwoofer.
• Center – Select LARGE if your center speaker reproduces bass frequencies effectively, or select SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect a center speaker, choose NO (the center channel is sent to the other speakers).
• Front Height – Select LARGE if your front height speakers reproduce bass frequencies effectively. Select
SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect front height speakers choose NO.
You can only adjust the Front Height setting when Pre
Out Setting is set to Height.
• Surr – Select LARGE if your surround speakers reproduce bass frequencies effectively. Select SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect surround speakers choose NO (the sound of the surround channels is sent to the other speakers).
• Surr. Back – Select the number of surround back speakers you have (one, two or none). Select LARGE if your surround back speakers reproduce bass frequencies effectively. Select SMALL to send bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. If you didn’t connect surround back speakers choose NO.
You can only adjust the Surr. Back setting when Pre
Out Setting is set to Surr. Back.
If you select one surround back speaker only, make sure that additional amplifier is hooked up to the PRE OUT L
(Single) terminal.
• Subwoofer – LFE signals and bass frequencies of channels set to SMALL are output from the subwoofer when YES is selected (see notes below). Choose the PLUS setting if you want the subwoofer to output bass sound continuously or you want deeper bass (the bass frequencies that would normally come out the front and center speakers are also routed to the subwoofer). If you did not connect a subwoofer choose NO (the bass frequencies are output from other speakers).
4 When you’re finished, press RETURN.
You return to the Manual SP Setup menu.
Note
• If you select SMALL for the front speakers, the subwoofer will automatically be fixed to YES. Also, the center, surround, surround back and front height speakers can’t be set to LARGE if the front speakers are set to SMALL. In this case, all bass frequencies are sent to the subwoofer.
• If the surround speakers are set to NO, the surround back speakers will automatically be set to NO.
• If you have a subwoofer and like lots of bass, it may seem logical to select LARGE for your front speakers and PLUS for the subwoofer. This may not, however, yield the best bass results. Depending on the speaker placement of your room you may actually experience a decrease in the amount of bass due to low frequency cancellations. In this case, try changing the position or direction of speakers. If you can’t get good results, listen to the bass response with it set to PLUS and YES or the front speakers set to LARGE and SMALL alternatively and let your ears judge which sounds best. If you’re having problems, the easiest option is to route all the bass sounds to the subwoofer by selecting SMALL for the front speakers.
Crossover Network
• Default setting: 100Hz
This setting decides the cutoff between bass sounds playing back from the speakers selected as LARGE, or the subwoofer, and bass sounds playing back from those selected as
SMALL. It also decides where the cutoff will be for bass sounds in the LFE channel.
• For more on selecting the speaker sizes, see Speaker

When the synchronized amp mode is canceled, the receiver’s power turns off if you were viewing an HDMI input or a TV program on the TV.
• Power synchronization with TV
When the TV’s power is set to standby, the receiver’s power is also set to standby. (Only when the input for a component connected to the receiver by HDMI connection is selected or when watching the TV.)
• Automatic switching of inputs
The receiver’s input switches automatically when the
Control with HDMI-compatible component is played.
The receiver’s input switches automatically when the
TV’s input is switched.
The synchronized amp mode remains in effect even if the receiver’s input is switched to a component other than one connected by HDMI.
About connections with a product of a different brand that supports the Control with HDMI function
The synchronized operations below can be used when the receiver’s Control with HDMI function is connected to a TV of a brand other than Pioneer that supports the Control with
HDMI function. (Depending on the TV, however, some of the
Control with HDMI functions may not work.)
• When the TV’s power is set to standby, the receiver’s power is also set to standby. (Only when the input for a component connected to the receiver by HDMI connection is selected or when watching the TV)
• The sound of TV programs or an external input connected to the TV can also be output from the speakers connected to the receiver. (If the TV does not support the HDMI
Audio Return Channel function, this requires connection of an optical digital cable, etc., in addition to the HDMI cable.)
The synchronized operations below can be used when the receiver’s Control with HDMI function is connected to a player or recorder of a brand other than Pioneer that supports the Control with HDMI function.
• When playback starts on the player or recorder, the receiver’s input switches to the HDMI input to which that component is connected.
See the Pioneer website for the latest information on the models of non-Pioneer brands and products that support the
Control with HDMI function.
Cautions on the Control with HDMI function
• Connect the TV and components (Blu-ray Disc player, etc.) directly to this receiver. Interrupting a direct connection with other amps or an AV converter (such as an HDMI switch) can cause operational errors.
• When the receiver’s Control is turned ON, even if the receiver’s power is in the standby mode, it is possible to output the audio and video signals from a player via HDMI to the TV without producing sound from the receiver, but only when a Control with HDMI-compatible component
(Blu-ray Disc player, etc.) and compatible TV are connected. In this case, the receiver’s power turns on and the power and HDMI indicators light.

Setting the remote to control other components
Most components can be assigned to one of the input function buttons using the component’s manufacturer preset code stored in the remote.

Note
• TV CONTROL buttons are only dedicated to control the TV
(for example, codes for TV, CATV, Satellite TV or DTV).
• You can cancel or exit any of the steps by pressing

Troubleshooting
Incorrect operations are often mistaken for trouble and malfunctions. If you think that there is something wrong with this component, check the points below. Take a look at the other components and electrical appliances being used, because sometimes the problem may lie there. If the trouble isn’t sorted out even after going through the checks below, ask your nearest Pioneer authorized independent service company to carry out repair work.
• If the unit does not operate normally due to external effects such as static electricity disconnect the power plug from the outlet and insert again to return to normal operating conditions.
General
The power does not turn on.
Disconnect the power plug from the outlet, and insert again.
Make sure there are no loose strands of speaker wire touching the rear panel. This could cause the receiver to shut off automatically.
The receiver suddenly switches off.
When the Auto Power Down function is working, the power will automatically turn off if the receiver has not operated for several hours. Check the setting for the Auto Power Down function (see The Auto Power Down menu on page 37).
After about a minute (you won’t be able to switch the unit on during this time), switch the receiver back on. If the message persists, call a Pioneer authorized independent service company.
The power suddenly turns on or off, or the input suddenly changes (When the Control with HDMI is ON).
This happens because of the synchronized operation due to the Control with HDMI function. If synchronized operations are not needed, set the Control with HDMI to OFF (see HDMI
Setup on page 38).
OVERHEAT shows in the display and the power turns off.
The temperature within the unit has exceeded the allowable value. Try moving the unit for better ventilation (see page 2).
Lower the volume level.
TEMP shows in the display and the volume level drops.
The temperature within the unit has exceeded the allowable value. Try moving the unit for better ventilation (see page 2).
Lower the volume level.
No sound is output when an input function is selected.
Use MASTER VOLUME to turn up the volume.
Press MUTE on the remote control to turn muting off.
Press SPEAKERS to select the proper speaker set (see
Switching the speaker system on page 12).
Set the SIGNAL SEL to H (HDMI), C1/O1/O2 (digital) or A
(analog) according to the type of connections made (refer to page 22).
Make sure the component is connected correctly (refer to
Connecting your equipment on page 10).
Check the audio output settings of the source component.
Refer to the instruction manual supplied with the source component.
No image is output when an input function is selected.
Make sure the component is connected correctly (refer to
Connecting your equipment on page 10).
Use the same type of video cables for the source component and TV to connect to this receiver (see About video outputs
connection on page 13).
Check The Input Assign menu on page 36 to make sure you’re assigned the correct input.
The video input selected on the TV monitor is incorrect. Refer to the instruction manual supplied with the TV.
No sound from subwoofer.
Make sure the subwoofer is switched on.
If the subwoofer has a volume knob, make sure it’s turned up.
The Dolby Digital or DTS source you are listening to may not have an LFE channel.
Switch the subwoofer setting in Speaker Setting on page 34 to
YES or PLUS.
Switch the LFE ATT (LFE Attenuate) on page 32 to LFEATT 0 or
LFEATT 5.
No sound from surround or center speakers.
Connect the speakers properly (refer to page 11).
Refer to Speaker Setting on page 34 to check the speaker settings.
Refer to Channel Level on page 35 to check the speaker levels.
The Phase Control feature doesn’t seem to have an audible effect.
If applicable, check that the lowpass filter switch on your subwoofer is off, or the lowpass cutoff is set to the highest frequency setting. If there is a PHASE setting on your subwoofer, set it to 0º (or depending on the subwoofer, the setting where you think it has the best overall effect on the sound).
Make sure the speaker distance setting is correct for all speakers (see Speaker Distance on page 36).
Considerable noise in radio broadcasts.
Connect the antenna (page 18) and adjust the position for best reception.
Route any loose cables away from the antenna terminals and wires.
Fully extend the FM wire antenna, position for best reception, and secure to a wall (or connect an outdoor FM antenna).
Connect an additional internal or external AM antenna
(page 18).
Turn off equipment causing interference or move it away from the receiver (or move antennas farther away from equipment causing noise).
Broadcast stations cannot be selected automatically.
Connect an outdoor antenna (refer to page 18).
Noise during playback of a cassette deck.
Move the cassette deck away from your receiver, until the noise disappears.
No sound is output or a noise is output when software with
DTS is played back.
Make sure the player’s settings are correct and/or the DTS signal out is on. Refer to the instruction manual supplied with the DVD player.
There seems to be a time lag between the speakers and the output of the subwoofer.
See Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC) on page 20 to set up your system again using MCACC (this will automatically compensate for a delay in the subwoofer output).
After using the Auto MCACC setup, the speaker size setting
(LARGE or SMALL) is incorrect.
Low-frequency noise could have been caused by an air conditioner or motor. Switch off all appliances in the room and rerun the Auto MCACC setup.
Additional information
Can’t operate the remote control.
Replace the batteries (refer to page 9).

Avoid exposing the remote sensor on the front panel to direct light.
The display is dark or off.
Press DIMMER on the remote control repeatedly to return to the default.
The front panel display switches over for no apparent reason to various different displays.
This happens because the demo display is in operation. To turn off the demo display, press any button to go back to the original display, or set the FL Demo Mode to OFF (see The FL
Demo Mode menu on page 37).

The Safety of Your Ears is in Your Hands
Get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level a level that lets the sound come through clearly without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time, your hearing
“comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound, so what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL:
• Set your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.
• Once you have established a comfortable sound level, set the dial and leave it there.
BE SURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING
GUIDELINES:
• Do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.
• Use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
• Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle; the use of headphones may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.

Preventing shorting of speaker cords
If the speaker cords short (touch each other or the metal casing), you will not only lose the sound from the speakers, but the system may also be damaged as a result. Please read the guidelines below carefully and take care to connect the speaker cords correctly.
When connecting the speakers, make sure that the exposed wire of each speaker cord does not touch anything other than the correct speaker terminal.
No Good!
Make sure that exposed speaker wire strands do not touch the exposed wire from any other speaker cord.
Make sure that exposed speaker wire does not extend outside the speaker terminal and touch any other wire.
Make sure that exposed speaker wire does not touch the rear panel, screws, etc.
OK!
CD
Remove about 10 mm (3/8 in.) of the plastic insulation and twist together the exposed speaker wire.
@
Unscrew the speaker terminal, and fully insert the speaker cord so that no exposed speaker wire extends outside the terminal.
®
Tighten the speaker terminal to secure the speaker cord.
Check that all the speaker cords are properly connected at both the amplifier and the speaker ends.
