• IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch
CAUTION
Do not change the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch
while the power
of
this unit
is
turned on, as doing
so
may
damage the unit.
If
the unit fails to tum on, the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR
switch may not be fully slid to either position.
If
this is the
case, remove the power cable and slide the switch all the
way to either position.
Select the switch position (LOW or HIGH) according to
the impedance
of
the speakers
in
your system.

•
If
you use one set (A or B), the impedance
of
each speaker must be 6 Q or higher (R-S700)
or 8
Q or higher (R-S500).
HIGH •
If
you make bi-wire connections, the
impedance
of
each speaker must be 6 Q
or
higher (R-S700) or 8 Q
or
higher (R-S500).
See page

for Bi-wire connection.
•
If
you use one set (A or B), the impedance
of
each speaker must be 4 Q or higher.
•
If
you use two sets (A and B) simultaneously,
LOW
the impedance
of
each speaker must be 8 Q or
higher.
•
If
you make bi-wire connections, the
impedance
of
each speaker must be 4 Q or
higher. See page

__
Note
When inserting speaker cables into the speaker terminals, insert
only the bare speaker wire. If insulated cable
is
inserted, the
connection may be poor and sound may not be heard.
• Connecting via banana plug
Tighten the knob and then insert the banana plug into the
end
of
the corresponding terminal.
CONNECTIONS
• Bi-wire connection
Hi-wire connection separates the woofer from the
combined midrange and tweeter section. A bi-wire
compatible speaker has four binding post terminals. These
two sets
of
terminals allow the speaker to be split into two
independent sections. With these connections, the mid and
high frequency drivers are connected
to
one set
of
terminals and the low frequency driver to another set
of
terminals.

Connect the other speaker to the other set
of
terminals
in
the same way.
CAUTION
When making bi-wire connections, set the IMPEDANCE
SELECTOR switch to HIGH
or
LOW depending on the
impedance
of
your speakers:
6
n or higher: HIGH (R-S700)
8
n or higher: HIGH (R-S500)
4
n or higher: LOW
See page
13
for more information about the
IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch.
Note
When making bi-wire connections, remove the shorting bridges
or cables on the speaker.

To
use the bi-wire connections, press SPEAKERS A and
SPEAKERS B on the front panel or on the remote control so that
both SP A and B light up on the front panel display.
