Speaker Placement
—Continued
The RDC-7.1 has two speaker terminal blocks for speaker system [A] and [B]. This allows you to build two 7.1 ch
home theater systems, and various speaker placements and connections are also available. For example, some channels
of either speaker system can be used for another room (Zone 2), or you can select one of two speaker systems for
playback according to the source.
When you use two speaker systems, you have to associate the speakers with the zone (e.g., Main A, Main B, etc.).
After making the association, for example, pressing the “Main A” button on the remote controller will output the
source from the speakers configured as “Main A.”
Here are some examples of speaker placement and zone association. These examples can be your reference when you
build your own home theater system. The illustration on the right represents the actual settings displayed corresponding to
each example. For details on configuring speaker placement and zone association, see page 92.
*In the following illustrations, white speakers denote speaker system [A] and gray ones denote speaker system [B].
*Key to abbreviations:

C

SL

Main room A: 7.1 ch speaker system; Main room B: 7.1ch speaker system
Main room A: 7.1 ch speaker systems and the two additional front speakers
(When you want to use speaker system [A] for movies and enjoy 7.1 surround sound and the two additional front
speakers for classic music.)
• Set all the zone parameters for speaker system [A] to “Main A.”
• Set the front speaker parameters for speaker system [B] to “Main A.”
• If you want to use the front speakers of speaker system [B] for specific sources, select the source and set the front
speaker setting parameters to “B” in the listening mode setup menu.
When you want to output to both speaker systems simultaneously, you can choose the “A+B” setting.
• To output the sound, press the [Main A] button on the remote controller.
Connection Examples
When you wish to configure 7.1 ch speaker system in the main room A only, the initial setting can be used without
any modification.

• Set all the zone parameters for speaker system [A] to “Main A.”
• Set all the zone parameters for speaker system [B] to “Main B.”
• Pressing the [Main A] or [Main B] button causes the sound to be output from the speaker system associated
with the zone button. Both speaker systems cannot be selected simultaneously.
*If you set all the zone parameters for speaker system [B] to “Main A” and play a single source, the same audio signal will be
output from both speaker systems [A] and [B].
