Connecting your equipment
Determining the speakers’ application
This unit permits you to build various surround systems, in accordance with the number of speakers you have.
!
Be sure to connect speakers to the front left and right channels (
L
and
R
).
!
It is also possible to only connect one of the surround back speakers (
SB
) or neither.
!
If you have two subwoofers, the second subwoofer can be connected to the
SUBWOOFER 2
terminal.
Connecting two subwoofers increases the bass sound to achieve more powerful sound reproduction. In this
case, the same sound is output from the two subwoofers.
Choose one from Plans [A] to [E] below.
Important
!
The
Speaker System
setting must be made if you use any of the connections shown below other than [A] (see
).
!
Sound does not come through simultaneously from the front height, front wide, speaker B and surround back
speakers. Output speakers are different depending on the input signal or listening mode.

A 7.2 ch surround system connects the left and right front speakers (
L
/
R
), the center speaker (
C
), the left and right
front height speakers (
FHL
/
FHR
), the left and right surround speakers (
SL
/
SR
), the left and right surround back
speakers (
SBL
/
SBR
), and the subwoofers (
SW 1
/
SW 2
).
It is not possible to produce sound simultaneously from the front height speakers and the surround back
speakers.
This surround system produces a more true-to-life sound from above.

(

playback of the same sound on the B speakers. The same connections also allow for 7.2-channel surround sound
in the main zone when not using the B speakers.
