CONNECTING INSTRUCTIONS
SPEAKER CONNECTIONS AND SPEAKER SWITCH
In connecting only one set of speakers, connect the right speaker
to right terminals and left speaker to left speaker terminals of "A"
terminals. Should plus or minus of either right or left channel be
reversely connected, sounds at the center section will be adversely
affected by lack of bass sound. To connect a second set of speakers,
connect right speaker to right speaker terminals and left speaker to left
speaker terminals of "8" terminals. In the same manner, a third set of
speakers can be connected to
"e"
terminals.
Sound cannot be heard when the SPEAKERS switch on the front
panel is set to the A
+
8 position, when only one pair of speaker
system is used with connections made either to "A" terminals or "8"
terminals. When connecting the speaker leads to the SPEAKERS
terminals, make sure that the bare wire strands at the ends of the
speaker leads don't touch each other or adjacent terminal.
It is recommended that the tips of speaker cord leads are
soldered, or the strands of each indiviqual lead twisted together to
eliminate any possibility of short-circuits forming in the speaker con ­
necting network.

CONNECTION TO SPEAKER TERMINALS
PHASING OF THE SPEAKERS
Speaker phasing can be determined in the following manner:
1. Set the SELECTOR switch to FM.
2.
Set the MODE switch to MONO.
3. Tune in the desired station with the TUNING knob.
4. If the sound is coming directly from the front, the speakers are in phase.
If the sound comes from both sides and there is a noticeable loss in low
frequencies, the speakers are out of phase.
In this case reverse the leads on one speaker.
