Pioneer HTP-071: Connecting the speakers Flow of settings on the receiver

Placing the speakers

English

The receiver will work with just two stereo speakers (the

front speakers in the diagram) but using at least three

speakers is recommended, and a complete setup is

best for surround sound.

To achieve the best possible surround sound, install

your speakers as shown below.

• The subwoofer and surround speakers are not

magnetically shielded and so should not be placed

near a TV or monitor, as the interaction of magnetic

materials can cause distortion of the colors on your

TV screen. Devices easily affected by magnetism

(magnetic media cards, wrist-watches, video tapes,

etc.) should not be placed near the subwoofer and

surround speakers.

• The front speakers and center speaker furnished

in this system are designed for use close to a CRT-

based TV or color monitor. However, if color distortion

is caused due to the installation, try turning off the

power to the CRT-based TV or color monitor for 15

to 30 minutes, then turning on the power again. The

interactive effect with the speaker system may cause

color distortion in a CRT-based TV or color monitor.

• Do not attach center speaker and subwoofer to the

wall or ceiling, as they may cause injury in the event

of a fall.

Connecting the speakers

Make sure you connect the speaker on the right to the right (R) terminal and the speaker on the left to the left (L) terminal. Also make sure the positive and negative (+/–)

terminals on the receiver match those on the speakers.

Bare wire connections

1

Push open the tabs and insert exposed wire.

2

Release the tabs.

CAUTION

• 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.

• Do not connect the supplied subwoofer to any amplifier other than

the one supplied with this system. Connection to any other amplifier

may result in malfunction or fire.
