Note
• Make sure that the wires do not touch metal parts on the back
panel or elsewhere.
• Y plugs cannot be connected.
• Two sets of speakers (Speakers A and Speakers B) can be
connected to the integrated amplifier. You can select which
speakers to output audio to when listening to music.
You can also output audio from both sets of speakers.
• If you use Speakers A or Speakers B, make sure to use speakers
with an impedance of 4 to 16 ohms. If you use Speakers A and
Speakers B, make sure to use speakers with an impedance of 8
to 16 ohms. Connecting speakers with an impedance less than 8
ohms may cause the protection circuit to activate.
• When using only one speaker, or when playing back monaural
audio, don’t connect a single speaker to both the left and right
speaker terminals.
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other words,
connect positive (+) terminals only to positive (+) terminals, and
negative (–) terminals only to negative (–) terminals. If you get
them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and
will feel unnatural.
• Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so
may damage the integrated amplifier.
• Make sure the metal core of the wire does not have contact with
the integrated amplifier’s rear panel. Doing so may damage the
integrated amplifier.
• Don’t connect more than one speaker wire to a single speaker
terminal. Doing so could damage the integrated amplifier or
cause it to malfunction.

Bi-wiring Connection
Bi-wiring provides improved bass and treble performance. Using terminals of both SPEAKERS A and SPEAKERS B,
it separates high frequency from low frequency signals.
Important:
• Bi-wiring can be used only with speakers that support bi-wiring. Refer to your speaker manual.
• When making the bi-wiring connections, be sure to remove the jumper bars that link the speakers’ tweeter (high) and woofer (low)
terminals.
Tweeter (high)
Woofer (low)

Tip
• As shown on the illustration, the wiring terminals of SPEAKERS A are connected to the woofer and SPEAKERS B are connected
to the tweeter. However, wiring them the other way around is also possible.

Note
• Push plugs in all the way to make good connections (loose connections can cause noise or
malfunctions).
Right!
• To prevent interference, keep audio cables away from power cords and speaker cables.
• The integrated amplifier’s optical digital jacks have shutter-type covers that open when an
optical plug is inserted and close when it’s removed. Push plugs in all the way.
• To prevent shutter damage, hold the optical plug straight when inserting and removing.
• Do not use digital audio signals other than PCM.
Wrong!
*
An analog audio cable can be used instead of a coaxial cable. However, we recommend that
you use a coaxial or a composite video cable.
Connecting the Power Cord
Tip
• To reduce noise, do not tie signal cables together with the power
cable. Wire them so that they are away from each other.
• Depending on the country, the integrated amplifier may be
polarity-sensitive. In this case, plug the power cord in a way that
provides the best sound quality.
Note
• Never disconnect the power cord from the integrated
amplifier while the other end is still plugged into a wall
outlet. Doing so may cause an electric shock. Always disconnect
the power cord from the wall outlet first, and then the integrated
amplifier.
Supplied power cord
• Turning on the integrated amplifier may cause a momentary
power surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment
on the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the integrated
amplifier into a different branch circuit.
• Do not use a power cord other than the one supplied with the
integrated amplifier. The supplied power cord is designed
exclusively for use with the integrated amplifier and should not
be used with any other equipment.

■ Operating on the integrated amplifier
Using the Direct Function
INPUT selector
By bypassing the tone control circuit, the Direct function
uses the shortest path for enhanced sound quality.
Although this function generally turns the display off, the
integrated amplifier makes use of a display that doesn’t
affect the sound quality. It is therefore possible to turn the
display on while the Direct function is enabled. Also,
since the left/right balance setting uses a system that
doesn’t affect the sound quality, the balance can be
adjusted even if the Direct function is enabled.
Use the INPUT selector.

The sound quality is not good.
• Make sure the speaker cables are connected with the
• Make sure all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all
• The sound quality can be affected by strong magnetic
fields, such as those from a TV. Try moving any such
devices away from the integrated amplifier.
• If you have any devices that emit high-intensity radio
waves near the integrated amplifier, such as a cellular
phone that’s being used to make a call, the integrated
amplifier may output noise.
Power
Can’t turn on the Integrated Amplifier.
• Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged into
• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait 5
seconds or more, then plug it in again.
Headphone output is intermittent or there’s
no sound.
The Integrated Amplifier turns off
unexpectedly.
• This may be due to dirty contacts. Clean the headphones
plug. See your headphones’ instruction manual for
cleaning information. Also, make sure that the
headphones cable is not broken or damaged.
• Make sure that “ROUTE” is not set to “MAIN”
• When the Auto Standby function is activated, the
integrated amplifier will automatically enter Standby
• When the protection circuit is activated (because of
speaker short-circuit, overload, or over-current), the
integrated amplifier enters Standby mode. Remove the
source of the problem and turn the integrated amplifier
back on.
Audio performance
• Audio performance will be at its best about 10 to 30
minutes after the integrated amplifier has been turned on
and had time to warm up.
Audio
• Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with speaker or
power cables may degrade the sound quality, so refrain
from doing it.
There’s no sound.
• Depending on the country, the integrated amplifier may
be polarity-sensitive. In this case, plug the power cord in
a way that provides the best sound quality.
• Install the integrated amplifier on a sturdy rack or shelf.
Position it so that its weight is evenly dispersed on its
four legs. Do not install the integrated amplifier in a
place with vibration or an unstable location.
• Plug the power cord into an AC wall outlet.
• Make sure the integrated amplifier’s volume control is

rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by
the unit’s malfunction. Before you record important
data, make sure that the material will be recorded
correctly.
External Components
No sound is heard from a connected
component.
The integrated amplifier contains a microcomputer
for signal processing and control functions. In very
rare situations, severe interference, noise from an
external source, or static electricity may cause it to
lockup. In the unlikely event that this should happen,
unplug the power cord, wait at least 5 seconds, and
then plug it again.
• Make sure the correct input source is selected
• If “ROUTE” is set to anything other than “NORMAL”,
make sure that each component is connected accordingly
• Make sure the analog audio cable is connected correctly
Before disconnecting the power cord from the wall
outlet, set the integrated amplifier to Standby.
The sound from turntable is distorted.
• If your turntable (MM/MC) has a built-in phono preamp,
connect to other analog inputs such as LINE IN.
• If your turntable (MM/MC) does not have a built-in
phono preamp, connect a turntable to PHONO
If during idling the cover is too hot to touch, then
ventilation needs to be improved.
• Make sure that the ground wire is connected. Otherwise,
it may produce an audible hum and noise.
• Make sure the MM/MC selector is set in accordance
