Remove approximately 10 mm (0.4 in) of insulation from the end of each speaker cable, and twist the exposed wires together tightly to prevent short circuits.10 mm (0.4 in) Unscrew the knob on each SPEAKERS terminal, and then insert the bare wire into the side hole on the terminal. Diameter of the speaker cable wire hole: 6.0 mm (0.24 in) Tighten the knob. CAUTION

  • Do not loosen the knob excessively. Otherwise, the knob might come o and a child might swallow it accidentally.• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not touch the SPEAKERS terminals while the power to the unit is on. NOTICE If the SPEAKERS terminals come into contact with a metallic rack, a short circuit might occur, resulting in damage to this unit. When installing the unit in a rack, maintain a sucient clearance to prevent the SPEAKERS terminals from coming into contact with the rack.17 English Using Y-shaped lug cables

Unscrew the knob, and then sandwich the Y-shaped lug between the ring part and base of the terminal. Thickness of the terminal core: 5.0 mm (0.20 in) Slide Y-shaped lug

Tighten the knob.18 Bi-wiring connections To bi-wire your speakers, separate cables are used to connect the mid/high-frequency speaker driver (tweeter) and the low-frequency driver (woofer) on each bi- wireable speaker to the amplier. Running separate cables from the amplier can have a profound impact on relieving the tweeter circuit from the back ush of EMF (electromotive force) generated by the woofer’s voice coil, resulting in less interference between HF and LF ranges and better sound quality. You need to use speakers that feature two sets of terminals (total of four) that allow each speaker to be split into two sections (low-frequency and mid/high-frequency ranges).

Turn o the power to the unit and all connected components.

Remove the shorting bars or bridges on the speakers. The LPF (low pass lter) and HPF (high pass lter) crossovers will be separated.

The M-5000 features two built-in ampliers. Each of these amps is connected to the mid/high-frequency speaker driver (tweeter) and the low-frequency driver (woofer) on the speaker of the corresponding channel. You need to use speakers that feature two sets of terminals (total of four) that allow each speaker to be split into two sections (low-frequency and mid/high-frequency ranges). Bi-amping speakers can prevent the back ush of EMF (electromotive force) generated by the woofer from affecting the signal, resulting in improved sound quality in some cases. Connect the input source to the L-channel input jacks on both M-5000 units.
