Connecting Sources and Loudspeakers
PA720
Connect the RED positive speaker terminal labelled
CH1 to CH7+ to the positive terminal of your speaker.
Similarly, connect the BLACK negative speaker terminal
of the same channel to the negative terminal of your
speaker.
Repeat this process for the other speakers, using the
same respective input and speaker terminals for each
channel.
NOTE: All the channels are identical so there is no
requirement to connect specific AVR output channels
to specific amplifier channels.
Notes On Making Speaker Connections
Do not make any connections to any amplifier while it is switched on. We recommend
that your amplifier is completely disconnected from the mains supply before starting.
Before switching your amplifier on for the first time after connecting to speakers, please
check all connections thoroughly. Ensure that bare wires or cables are not touching
each other or the amplifier's chassis (which could cause short circuits), and that you
have connected positive (+) to positive and negative (–) to negative. Be sure to check
the wiring for both the amplifier and the speaker.
After making connections: switch the amplifier on then gradually increase the volume
to the required listening level.
If you are unsure as to how your system should be connected, please contact your
Arcam dealer who will be happy to help you.
