switched between CD 1, CD 2, and CD 3, be sure to set the
command mode to “CD 1” and connect the changer to the
CD terminals on the receiver.
However, if you have a Sony CD changer with VIDEO
OUT terminals, set the command mode to “CD 2” and
connect the changer to the VIDEO 2 terminals on the

Speaker System Hookups
Overview
This section describes how to connect your speakers to
the receiver. Although front (left and right) speakers
are required, center and rear speakers are optional.
Adding center and rear speakers will enhance the
surround effects. Connecting an active woofer will
increase bass response.
For specific locations of the terminals, see the
illustration below.

What cords will I need?
Speaker cord (not supplied) (1 for each speaker)
Twist the stripped ends of the cord about 2/3 inch (15 mm).
Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate
terminal on the components: + to + and – to –. If the cords
are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass.
