Connecting Your Speakers
Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before making any connections.
The receiver allows you to connect two sets of speakers.
When two sets of speakers are connected, you can select
which speaker set outputs sound or use both sets to
output sound simultaneously.
• When you connect one set of speakers to either
When two sets of speakers are connected, you can select
which speaker set outputs sound or use both sets to
output sound simultaneously.
• When you connect one set of speakers to either
SPEAKERS A or SPEAKERS B terminal posts, or
when you connect two sets of speakers to both speaker
terminal posts and output sound only from either
speaker set, use speakers whose impedance is between
4 and 16 ohms. For the North American model
TX-8522, when the speaker impedance is 4 or 6 ohms,
set the speaker impedance setting on the receiver to 6
ohms (see next page for details).

If you make an incorrect setting for the speakers or the
impedance values, the built-in protection circuit may be
activated resulting in no sound output from speakers.

• Unnecessarily long or very thin speaker cables may
affect the sound quality and should be avoided.
• Be careful not to short the
