[. . . ] Remove plastic protective covers Before installation, the plastic protective caps must be removed from all the sockets used. Connections loudspeaker The use of ready-made loudspeaker cables is recommended instead of connecting the cable's central wire (litz wire) directly to the terminals. banana plugs or cable lugs ensure high security from short-circuits and damage to the loudspeakers or the receiver. Ensure that bare loudspeaker wires are never able to come into contact with each other or with the metal on the back of the housing. Only connect one loudspeaker wire to each loudspeaker terminal!Make sure that the positive and negative loudspeaker wires are connected correctly. You will notice a reduced sound quality if the connections are the wrong way round. Make sure that you do not get these connections confused during installation!Connection quality Make sure that all plugs fit tightly. Inadequate connections can cause noise interference, failures and malfunctions. - right RCA Connection Make sure that you do not mix up the analogue inputs for right and left. The cinch plugs for these are frequently colour coded as follows: red for the right channel, black or white for the left channel. Signal and speaker cables Only use loudspeakers with a nominal impedance of at least 4. CD recorder, cassette recorder, video recorder) or another appliance that is intended for receiving the unchanged, set stereo output level (line level) from the signal source selected on the The output level is independent from the volume, loudness and mute functions. To do so, connect this signal output to the signal input (RECORD or INPUT) on the appliance using cinch cables. You only need the "PRE" sockets (15) if you want to use a separate stereo amplifier or two mono amplifiers to supply two additional loudspeakers. This makes sense if you intend to use two more loudspeakers for stereo music playback, perhaps even in another area. These loudspeakers are then connected to the outputs of the additional amplifier. 3 mm jack can be plugged into the "PHONES" socket (9) on the front of the appliance. When this happens, the system's loudspeakers and the "PRE" preamplifier output (15) are muted. The volume should be turned down before plugging in or unplugging. All headphones with an impedance of at least 32 Ohms can be used. [. . . ] One of the signal cables between source appliance and receiver is not plugged in firmly or is faulty. Try different ways of setting up and pointing the antenna. try to find and eliminate the source of interference. Try to improve the reception by pressing the "ST/MONO" button (6)(25) or choose another station. [. . . ]
