Yamaha RX-V561 User Manual

Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are faulty, 
this unit cannot reproduce the input sources accurately.

A speaker cable is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. Cables are colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, 
groove or ridge. Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the “+” (red) terminals of this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain cable 
to the “–” (black) terminals.

Caution
• Before connecting the speakers, make sure that this unit is turned off (see page 21).
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could damage 

this unit and/or the speakers.

• Use the magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speaker still creates interference with the monitor, place the 

speakers away from the monitor.

• If you are to use 6 ohm speakers, be sure to set “SP IMP.” to “6

Ω

 MIN” before using this unit (see page 13).
