HOOKING UP YOUR DIFFERENT PIECES OF EQUIPMENT
Always read the markings and labels on the jacks. Get a flashlight and mirror (and magnifying glass ?) if necessary to see them. Never try and remember that "the blue one went here and the yellow one went there".An input connected to an input does nothing and an output connected to an output may break it.
START WITH BASIC OPERATION
Start with simple setups and once you've mastered running your systen that way you can add complexity and advanced features. That way if something stops working you have a better chance of troubleshooting the problem.
NEATNESS COUNTS
Route your wires carefully to avoid tangles. Trim wire ends carefully on speaker leads. This will make upgrading or troubleshooting a lot quicker and easier.
POSITIONING
Amps get hot. Don't put the DVD or CD on top of it. The amp may overheat and the optics will have a short lifespan.
