Using a bi-amplifier
connection
If you are not using the surround back
speakers, you can use the SURROUND BACK
SPEAKERS terminals for the front speakers in
a bi-amplifier connection.
To connect the speakers
Connect the jacks on the Lo (or Hi) side of the
front speakers to the FRONT SPEAKERS A
terminals, and connect the jacks on the Hi (or
Lo) side of the front speakers to the
SURROUND BACK SPEAKERS terminals.
Make sure that the metal fittings of Hi/Lo
attached to the speakers have been removed
from the speakers. Otherwise, it may cause the
receiver to malfunction.
To set up the speakers
Set “Sur Back Assign” to “BI-AMP” in the
Speaker settings menu. The same signals
output from the FRONT SPEAKERS A
terminals can be output from the SURROUND
BACK SPEAKERS terminals by setting “Sur
Back Assign” to “BI-AMP”.
Notes
• You cannot use the FRONT SPEAKERS B
terminals for a bi-amplifier connection.
• Set “Sur Back Assign” to “BI-AMP” before you
perform Auto Calibration.
• If you set “Sur Back Assign” to “BI-AMP”, the
speaker level, balance, and equalizer settings of the
surround back speakers become invalid, and those
of the front speakers are used.
• If you set “Speaker Pattern” to a setting with
surround back speakers, you cannot set “Sur Back
Assign” to “BI-AMP”.
