Connecting the multichannel analog
inputs

For DVD Audio and SACD playback, your DVD player may
have 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1 channel analog outputs (depending
on whether your player supports surround back

channels).

1

Make sure that the player is set to output

multichannel analog audio.

1

Connect the front, surround, center and subwoofer

outputs on your DVD player to the corresponding
MULTI CH IN jack on this receiver.

• Use standard RCA/phono jack cables for the

connections.

2

If your DVD player also has outputs for surround

back channels, connect these to the corresponding
MULTI CH IN jacks on this receiver.

• Use standard RCA/phono jack cables for the

connections.

• If there is a single surround back output, connect it to

the SURROUND BACK L (Single) jack on this
receiver.

• To use a 5.1-channel speaker set, use the surround

speakers for the surround channel, not the surround
back channel.

Selecting the multichannel analog inputs

If you have connected a decoder or a DVD player as
above, you must select the analog multichannel inputs
for surround sound playback.

Make sure you have set the playback source to the

proper output setting.
For example, you might need to set your DVD player to
output multichannel analog audio.

Press MULTI CH IN on the front panel to turn the

multi-channel input on.

• Depending on the DVD player you’re using, the

analog output level of the subwoofer channel may be
too low. In this case, the output level of the subwoofer
can be increased by 10 dB in the Multi Ch In Setup in
Other Setup. For details, see Multi Channel Input
Setup
on page 71.

Speaker B setup

Caution

Before making or changing the connections, switch off

the power and disconnect the power cord from the
power outlet. Plugging in components should be the
last connection you make with your system.

• Be careful not to allow any contact between speaker

wires from different terminals.

• You can use speakers with a nominal impedance

between 6

Ω to 16 Ω (please see Switching the

speaker impedance on page 76 if you plan to use
speakers with an impedance of less than 8

Ω).

After selecting Speaker B in Surround back speaker
setting
on page 41, you can use the speakers connected
to the (surround back) B speaker terminals on the rear
panel to listen to stereo playback in another room. See
Switching the speaker system below for the listening
options with this setup.

1

Connect a pair of speakers to the surround back

speaker terminals on the rear panel.
Connect them the same way you connected your
speakers in Installing your speaker system on page 21.
Make sure to review Placing the speakers on page 22
when placing the speakers in another room.

2

Select ‘Speaker B’ from the Surround Back System

menu.
See Surround back speaker setting on page 41 to do this.

Switching the speaker system

If you selected Speaker B in Surround back speaker
setting
on page 41, three speaker system settings are
possible using the SPEAKERS button. If you selected
Normal or Front Bi-Amp, the button will simply switch
your main speaker system on or off. The options below
are for the Speaker B setting only.
