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.

The Speaker System 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 Speaker System setting (VSX-1029 only) on page 57

).

•

When using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the SURROUND BACK L (Single) 

terminals.
