Other speaker connections
!
Your favorite speaker connections can be selected even if you have fewer than 5.2 speakers (except front left/
right speakers).
!
When not connecting a subwoofer, connect speakers with low frequency reproduction capabilities to the front
channel. (The subwoofer’s low frequency component is played from the front speakers, so the speakers could
be damaged.)
!
After connecting, be sure to conduct the
Full Auto MCACC
(speaker environment setting) procedure. See
Automatically conducting optimum sound tuning (Full Auto MCACC)
Placing the speakers
Refer to the chart below for placement of the speakers you intend to connect.

!
Place the surround speakers at 120º from the center. If you, (1) use the surround back speaker, and, (2) don’t
use the front height speakers / front wide speakers, we recommend placing the surround speaker right beside
you.
!
If you intend to connect only one surround back speaker, place it directly behind you.
!
Place the left and right front height speakers at least one meter directly above the left and right front speakers.
