Connecting the Speaker Cables
Screw-type speaker terminals
Strip 1/2" to 5/8" (12 to 15 mm) of
insulation from the ends of the
speaker cables, and twist the bare
wires tightly, as shown. (Supplied
speaker cables are already stripped.)
Using Banana Plugs (North American models)
• If you are using banana plugs, tighten the speaker terminal before inserting the banana plug.
• Do not insert the speaker code directly into the center hole of the speaker terminal.
Push-type speaker terminals
Strip 3/8" to 1/2" (10 to 12 mm) of insulation from the ends of
the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly, as shown.
(Supplied speaker cables are already stripped.)
The following illustration shows which speaker should be connected to each pair of terminals. If you're using only one
surround back speaker, connect it to the SURR BACK OR FRONT HIGH L terminals.
