How to connect three units

googler

Do you have any speaker cable at the moment?  Does it have some type of plug on it? If so, can you describe them or post a picture of them, or tell us where on the internet you can see a picture of them? 

Can you connect any existing cable to the speakers, and have you done so?

There's a big panel in the middle of the rear of the Yamaha, with white lines around the terminals, with SPEAKERS in white letters.  You should be connecting your pair of speakers to the A - Main terminals.

One pair, red & black for Left, the other pair, red & black for right.

(Ignore the red circle, that's from someone else's discussion)

The main.problem seems to be connecting the speakers to the Amp as there is nowhere to plug in any leads.It seems you either have to get some speaker wire and connect it to the Amp and there is nowhere near me which sells that.Would have to order some from Amazon.Where would I connect the Speaker wire to on the Amp.Thanks for all the replies much appreciated.

Confused, you only moved the furniture, what did you do with the cables?

I have the same problem in my household.  Missus decided to move things around and speaker doesn't work.  "I didn't touch the cables"  Yeah right, then how come one isn't connected to anything after the move!  Sorry, not any help but the rant makes me feel better.

No problem, of course i always suggest take a photo before you start and compare with the end result , especially when changing hardware.

I have now got some new speaker cable now just need to connect them to the Amp I know where they are supposed to go but there is no way of attaching them to the connections as there are no holes and cannot see any way of attaching them..

That will not work first of all there are no holes in the terminals and also the screw cap's do not screw off

Yes there should be , and the caps don't fully twist off https://usa.yamaha.com/products/contents/audio_visual/downloads/manuals/index.html?l=en&c=audio_visual&k=htr-5830 look at page 16
