Tip
To connect certain speakers to another power 
amplifier, use the PRE OUT jacks. The same signal is 
output from both the SPEAKER jacks and the PRE 
OUT jacks (front speakers only).
Speaker impedance
(Front speakers only)
To enjoy the best possible multi channel 
surround, connect speakers with a nominal 
impedance of 8 ohms or higher to the FRONT, 
CENTER, SURROUND and SURROUND 
BACK terminals, and set the IMPEDANCE 
SELECTOR to “8
Ω”. Use the screwdriver to set 
the impedance selector to the correct position. 
Refer to the operating instructions supplied with 
your speakers if you are not sure of their 
impedance. (This information is often on the 
back of the speaker.)
Alternatively, you may connect speakers with 
nominal impedances between 4 and 8 ohms to 
any or all of the speaker terminals. However, be 
sure to set the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR to 
“4
Ω” if you connect even one speaker with 
nominal impedance between 4 and 8 ohms.
Connect the supplied AC power cord to the AC 
IN terminal on the receiver, then connect the AC 
power cord to a wall outlet.
Notes
• The AC OUTLET(s) on the rear of the receiver is a 
switched outlet, which supplies power to the 
connected component only while the receiver is 
turned on.
• Make sure that the total power consumption of the 
component(s) connected to the receiver’s AC 
OUTLET(s) does not exceed the wattage stated on 
the rear panel. Do not connect high-wattage 
electrical home appliances such as electric irons, 
fans, or TVs to this outlet. This may cause a 
malfunction.
Note
Be sure to turn the power off before adjusting the 
IMPEDANCE SELECTOR.
