Phillips 7961 speaker hook up

[IowaIH]

Hello! I am new to the forum, (just found it) but have always been a fan of vintage audio! I have a question, (it might be a dumb one); I recently picked up a Phillips High Fidelity Laboratories 7961 reciever because my phono circuit on my Yamaha CR640 quit working. The speaker terminals on the back of the Phillips are labeled: (R) (C) (C) (L) >A channel
(R) (C) (C) (L) >B channel
What does the C mean? And how would I hook up 4 speakers to it? Any help would be great thanks!

Common (Ground) would be my guess.

Welcome to Ak. And your Phillips is a nice sounding unit. Last of the Magnavox. A Magnavox 1500 left over.

Welcome!

(R) (C) (C) (L)

(R) = Right speaker or Right channel
(C) = Common
(C) = Common
(L) = Left speaker or Left channel

A = is the main stereo left & right speakers
B = is for another pair of left and right speakers for a total of 4 speakers.

Hope this helps.
