User manual ONKYO D-035 QUICKSTART GUIDE

[. . . ] Interstation noise from an untuned FM radio. Audio from a cassette that's being fast-forwarded. High-pitched sounds generated by an oscillator, electronic musical instrument, and so on. [. . . ] Removing the Speaker Grilles You can use the speakers either with or without their grilles, which can be removed as follows. Use both hands to gently pull the bottom of the grille away from the speaker. Use both hands to gently pull the top of the grille away from the speaker. To replace the grille, align the four fasteners and gently push the grille toward the speaker. · Before connecting the speakers, disconnect your amplifier's power cord from the wall outlet and set its volume control to minimum. · The speaker's rated impedance is 4. Make sure you connect an amplifier that is compatible with a 4 impedance. · Use the supplied speaker cables to connect the speakers to your amplifier as shown. 1. Peel the insulation off the ends of the speaker cable and twist the core wires. While pressing the lever, insert the wire into the hole, and then release the lever. Make sure that the terminals are gripping the bare wires, not the insulation. Right speaker Positive (+) side is indicated by a red line Left speaker Speaker cable Remove Replace The type of speaker terminals used on the receiver and their position depends on the model. Refer to the receiver's instruction manual for details on connecting speakers to the receiver. 2 Before Turning on Your Receiver: · Make sure the speaker's positive (+) terminals are connected to the amplifier's positive (+) terminals, and the speaker's negative (­) terminals are connected to the amplifier's negative (­) terminals. If you get the polarity reversed, the sound will be unnatural, with a limited bass range and poor stereo image. [. . . ] If you put them in totally different locations, for example, one on the floor and the other on a bookshelf, the stereo imaging will be adversely affected. · To determine the best positions for your speakers, imagine an equilateral triangle and put the left and right speakers at the ends of the base. The ideal listening position is at or slightly behind the triangle's apex. [. . . ]
