CAUTION
• When using only one set of speaker terminals (SPEAKERS A or
SPEAKERS B), the speaker used should have a nominal impedance
between 4 Ω and 16 Ω. When using both sets of terminals, the
connected speakers should have nominal impedance between 8
Ω and 16 Ω. Consult the instructions accompanying your speakers
for details regarding the impedance value.
• These speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS live voltage. To prevent
the risk of electric shock when connecting or disconnecting the
speaker cables, disconnect the power cord before touching any
uninsulated parts.

Connecting your equipment

Connecting the playback components
1
Connect the audio outputs of your SACD player (or CD player) to the
SACD/CD IN jacks on this receiver.
2
Connect the audio outputs of your network audio player to the
NETWORK IN jacks on this receiver.
• You may connect other audio components furnished with analog audio
output jacks. If you wish to connect a portable audio player or other
component furnished with mini-plug output jacks (or headphone jacks),
use of a commercially available conversion plug will be necessary.
Connecting the cassette deck

Connect the audio outputs of your cassette deck (or other recorder)
to the RECORDER IN jacks on this receiver. Then connect the audio
inputs on the cassette deck to the RECORDER OUT jacks on this
receiver.
This will allow you to make recordings from the components connected to
this receiver.
Connecting a turntable

Connect the audio outputs of your turntable to the PHONO IN jacks
on this receiver.
Important
• The SIGNAL GND terminal is provided to reduce noise when
connecting the unit to components such as an analog turntable.
• Do not connect the PHONO (MM) terminals to any component other
than a turntable; also, do not connect to a turntable equipped with
built-in equalizer. An excessively high sound output may be produced,
resulting in damage to your speakers or other devices.
• The unit's PHONO (MM) terminals are designed to be used with
turntables equipped with MM (moving-magnet) type cartridges.
Turntables equipped with MC (moving-coil) cartridges cannot be used.
Plugging the receiver
Only plug in after you have connected all your components to this receiver,
including the speakers.
1
Plug the supplied power cord into the AC IN socket on the back of
the receiver.
2
Plug the other end into a power outlet.
To power outlet
CAUTION
• Handle the power cord by the plug part. Do not pull out the plug by
tugging the cord, and never touch the power cord when your hands are
wet, as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Do not place
the unit, a piece of furniture, or other object on the power cord or pinch
the cord in any other way. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with
other cables. The power cords should be routed so that they are not
likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause a fire or give
you an electric shock. Check the power cord once in a while. If you find
it damaged, ask your nearest Pioneer authorized independent service
company for a replacement.
