INSTALLATION— Continued
So, one question that is often asked: “I have a 7.1 or 7.2 receiver. It has 7
amplifiers, but I only have a 5.1 system. What can I use the extra 2 amplifiers for?”
Most 7.1 receivers allow you to use the extra 2 amplifiers to power and control a
set of stereo speakers either outside or in another room. In addition some receiv-
ers have connections for additional speakers in your home theater. These speaker
connections are for height and width enhancement speakers. So, if you have a 5.1
system and wish to add a pair of speakers, you can make your system into a 7.1
system with rear speakers or you can choose to have them enhance either the
height or the width of the sound (keeping your system a 5.1). Also, even though
your receiver can accommodate 2 subwoofers, it will work just fine with one.
Some people wish to use a 7.1 receiver with a 7.1 system. However, in addition,
they wish to have speakers in another location or they wish to add width or height
enhancement speakers. Most receivers allow you to add stereo amplifiers for the
additional speakers. Some of the higher end models are 9.2 meaning that they
contain 9 amplifiers giving you more choices for additional speakers.
We hope that the above has not been too confusing for you. The bottom line
is that a 5.1, 7.1, 7.2, or even a 9.2 A/V receiver will work perfectly with your 5.1
system.
It’s The Subwoofer Installation Section!
Look no further. (Unless you plan to read this section; then look fur-
ther)
In a home theater installation, the crossover for the subwoofer will be con-
trolled by your receiver rather than the crossover in your subwoofer. Therefore,
the crossover frequency control on the RSL Speedwoofer remote will be disabled
as your receiver will control the crossover frequency.
