Front High or Front Wide Speakers
When “Speakers Type(FrontB)” setting is set to “Not
Use”, you can select the priority of the use of Front High
or Front Wide speakers.
Notes:
• Front High or Front Wide speakers cannot be selected
in either of the following cases:
1. “Speakers Type(FrontB)” is set to “Bi-Amp”,

2. Powered Zone 2 is being used (page 134).
• When the listening mode that doesn’t support Front
High or Front Wide speakers is used, the setting can-
not be selected.
• If you use surround back speakers, the speaker selec-
tion will be based on the combination of surround
back and front high speakers, or surround back and
front wide speakers.

When “Speakers Type(FrontB)” setting is set to other
than “Not Use”, you can choose which of the speakers
you want to use with the Speakers A or Speakers B con-
figuration. Speakers A or B can be switched regardless
of listening modes.
