Notes about speaker cables

  • Use commercially-available speaker cables to connect the speakers.
  • Use the shortest speaker cables possible. The longer the cable, the greater the resistance value and the more that damping performance is reduced. Moreover, length also increases inductance and capacitance, degrading the sound quality of high frequencies.
  • Use left and right speaker cables that have the same length.

TEAC AP505 - Notes about speaker cables - 1

Cautions when connecting speakers

Connect the power plugs after all connections have been made.
- Carefully read the manuals of the devices that you are connecting and follow their instructions when making connections.
- When the left and right grounds are shared in a sub woofer with a built-in amplifier, for example, use might not be possible depending on connection conditions.

ATTENTION

  • This unit supports speakers that have a nominal impedance of 4 - 16 when the output mode is STEREO or BI-AMP and 8 - 16 when BTL. If speakers with lower impedance ratings are used, the protection circuit could operate, causing sound output to stop. In some cases, their use could even cause damage to this unit or the speakers.
  • This unit's red terminal is positive () and its black terminal is negative () . Generally, the wire of the speaker cable is marked to distinguish it from the wire of the cable. Connect the marked wire to the red terminal and the unmarked wire to the black terminal.
  • If the exposed end of a core wire in a speaker cable contacts another cable or terminal, a short could occur.
  • Never allow speaker cables to cause a short.
  • To prevent hum and noise, avoid bundling the cables together with the AC power cord or other cables.

How to connect speakers

1 Remove about one centimeter (1 / 2^ ) of insulation from the end of the speaker cable and twist the core wires well.
Turn the terminal cap counterclockwise to loosen it.
3 Insert the wire into the hole in the terminal post and turn the terminal cap clockwise to securely connect it.

TEAC AP505 - How to connect speakers - 1

Connect it so that none of the wire insulation is touching the terminal.
4 Confirm that the cable is fastened securely by gently pulling the cable.

Connecting with banana plugs

You can also make connections using commercially-available banana plugs. First, connect the banana plugs to the speaker cables and then connect the plugs to the terminals.

  • Keep the caps tightened when in use.
  • Carefully read the instructions for the banana plugs that you are using.

ATTENTION

Notice about the European model

In accordance with European safety regulations, connecting banana plugs to speaker terminals is not allowed on European models.

The holes into which banana plugs could be inserted have been covered with black caps. Connect speakers using bare wires or spade lugs.

If a black cap should become separated from its terminal, return it to its original position.

CAUTION

This unit does not have a volume adjustment function. Connect this unit to a preamplifier or another device such as a DAC that has a preamplifier function, and use that device to adjust the volume. If you connect this unit to a device that cannot be used to adjust the output volume, you will not be able to adjust the volume during playback. Sound might be output from the speakers at a very loud volume, which could harm hearing or damage equipment.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

When connecting this unit to a UD-505, NT-505, UD-503 or NT-503, set the LINE OUT LEVEL to VARIABLE.

The use of this unit's two built-in amplifier channels depends on the OUTPUT MODE switch setting.
