Hooking Up and Setting Up the Speaker System

Selecting the impedance (STR-DE625 only)

Set the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR for the front speakers as
indicated in the table below.  Check the instruction
manual of your speakers if you’re not sure of the
impedance.  (This information is usually printed on a
label on the back of the speaker.)

If the nominal impedance of
your speaker is

Set IMPEDANCE SELECTOR to

Between 4 and 8 ohms

4

8 ohms or higher

8

Note

Be sure to connect the front speakers with nominal impedance of
8 ohms or higher if you want to select both sets of front speakers
(see page 21).

Dolby Surround Setup

Dolby Pro Logic Surround is a system for decoding
Dolby Surround sound that is standardized for TV
programs and movies.  By selecting the proper center
mode and adjusting the speaker volume (see page 16),
you can reproduce highly precise localization and
dynamic panning of sounds of Dolby Pro Logic Surround-
encoded software.

To obtain the best possible surround effect, you will
require at least one additional pair of speakers and/or a
center speaker.

Locating the speakers

For optimum Dolby Pro Logic Surround sound, locate
your speakers as shown below.
