Connect your speakers to the receiver. This receiver allows you to use a 6.1 channel speaker system.
To fully enjoy theater-like multi channel surround sound requires five speakers (two front speakers, a
center speaker, and two surround speakers) and a sub woofer (5.1 channel).
You can enjoy high fidelity reproduction of DVD software recorded in the Surround EX format if you
connect one additional surround back speaker (6.1 channel) (see “Selecting the surround back decoding
mode” on page 33).
Example of 6.1 channel speaker system configuration
Tips
• When you connect 6.1 channel speaker system, place the surround back speaker behind the listening position
(page 19).
• Since the sub woofer does not emit highly directional signals, you can place it wherever you want.
• For greater flexibility in the positioning of the speakers, use the optional WS-FV11 or WS-FV10D floor stand
(available only in certain countries).
• You can also install the front, surround and surround back speakers on the wall (see page 16).
Note
Connect the long speaker connecting cords to the surround and surround back speaker terminals and the short speaker
connecting cords to the front and center speaker terminals.
