pattern, connect the speakers. Proceed to
Positioning
and connecting the speakers
on page 11.
Normal surround connections (default
setting)
Features
: Connections can be made in the ways from 2
channels for stereo playback to 5.1 (the basic
requirement for a home theater) or 7.1 channels, and on
this receiver it is even possible to connect 9.2 channels.
With 9.1-channel (or 9.2-channel) connections, two
surround speakers are used on each of the left and right
sides, a speaker layout similar to that used in movie
theaters. Furthermore, the set can be used for both
movies and for high sound quality multi-channel music
sources such as SACD and DVD Audio discs.
Speakers used
: Total maximum 9 (2 front, 1 center, 4
surround, 2 surround back)
Applicable listening rooms
: The conditions in any
listening room can be accommodated, but when using
9.2 channels of speakers, ideally the space should be
large enough for the speakers.
Output Setup
:
Normal
5.2-channel Bi-amp connections
Features
: The front, center and surround channels are all
reproduced with high quality (bi-amp). Fewer speakers
are used than with other patterns and the maximum
number of channels is 5.2, but this pattern provides the
highest sound quality.
Speakers used
: Total 5 bi-amp compatible speakers (2
front, 1 center, 2 surround)
Applicable listening rooms
: Suited to all listening
rooms
Output Setup
:
All Ch Bi-Amp
7.2-channel front Bi-amp connections
Features
: Provides up to 7.2-channel surround playback
with high quality sound (bi-amp) from the front and
center speakers.
Speakers used
: Total 7 (2 front (bi-amp compatible), 1
center (bi-amp compatible), 2 surround, 2 surround
back)
Applicable listening rooms
: Rooms with space to place
the surround back speakers behind or above the listening
position
Output Setup
:
Front Bi-Amp
Note
1 If you want to expand the system into a surround playback environment though there are currently only two speakers, or if you want to make bi-amp
connections though you do not have enough speaker cables, select the pattern you are thinking of trying. For either pattern, the optimum playback
environment can be achieved using Auto MCACC Setup, regardless of the number of speakers.
