≥[HT930] Even though the subwoofer shown is different, you can connect the speakers to the subwoofer in the same way.
≥Never short-circuit positive (i) and negative (j) speaker wires.
≥Be sure to connect only positive ([HT730] [HT733]: white, [HT930]: copper) wires to positive (i) terminals and negative ([HT730] [HT733]: blue,
[HT930]: silver) wires to negative (j) terminals. Incorrect connection can damage the speakers.

S-VIDEO OUT terminal
The S-VIDEO OUT terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the
VIDEO OUT terminal by separating the chrominance (C) and
luminance (Y) signals. (Actual results depend on the television.)

Television with COMPONENT VIDEO IN terminals
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals
These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive
output and provide a purer picture than the S-VIDEO OUT
terminal. Connection using these terminals outputs the color
difference signals (P
B/PR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in
order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.
≥The description of the component video input terminals depends
on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/P
B/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR).
Connect to terminals of the same color.
≥After making this connection, select “Darker” from the “Black
Level Control” in the “Video” tab (➜ page 23).
