Bi-wiring connection
This connection limits the effects of signal interference between the high range speakers (tweeters) and low range speakers (woofers), allowing you to
enjoy high quality playback.
When bi-wiring with bi-wireable speakers, connect the mid and high range terminals to SPEAKERS A (or SPEAKERS B), the low range terminals to
SPEAKERS B (or SPEAKERS A).

Connecting a playback device
You can connect turntables, tuners, CD players and network audio players to this unit.
This unit is compatible with turntables equipped with a moving magnet (MM) phono cartridge. When you connect to a turntable with a low output moving
coil (MC) cartridge, use a commercially available MC head amp or a step-up transformer.
If you set this unit’s input source to “PHONO” and you accidentally increase the volume without having a turntable connected, you may hear a hum noise
from the speakers.
NOTE
The earth terminal (SIGNAL GND) of this unit is not for safety grounding purposes.
If this terminal is connected when there is a lot of noise, the noise can be reduced.
Note that depending on the turntable, connecting the ground line may have the
reverse effect of increasing noise. In this case, it is not necessary to connect the
ground line.

Performing operations by RC on this
unit without visual contact
You can connect an external IR receiver to the REMOTE CONTROL
connectors to perform operations on this unit with the supplied remote
control unit without visual contact. This might be necessary if the unit is
hidden in a cupboard or corner, so you can’t directly point with the remote
control unit to the device.
To do this, disable the remote control signal receiving function “Setting the
remote signal receiving function” (v
p. 31).

Check the speaker connections. The protection circuit may have been activated because speaker cable
core wires came in contact with each other or a core wire was disconnected from the connector and
came in contact with the rear panel of this unit. After unplugging the power cord, take corrective action
such as firmly re-twisting the core wire or taking care of the connector, and then reconnect the wire.

Explanation of terms
Speaker impedance
This is an AC resistance value, indicated in Ω (Ohms).
Greater power can be obtained when this value is smaller.
Source direct
Playback with higher fidelity to the source becomes possible, as input
audio signals are output by bypassing the audio quality-control circuits
(BASS/TREBLE/BALANCE).
Protection circuit
This is a function to prevent damage to devices within the power supply
when an abnormality such as an overload, excess voltage occurs or over
temperature for any reason.
If a malfunction occurs in this unit, the power indicator blinks red and the
unit switches to standby mode.
