Determining the speakers’
application
This unit is equipped with speaker terminals for
9 channels, allowing users to select a variety of
speaker layouts/usage patterns according to
their tastes. The terminals to which the speak-
ers should be connected differ according to
the speaker layout/usage pattern. Select one
speaker layout/usage pattern before connecting
the speakers. For instructions on connections,
see Installing your speaker system on page 19.
! Be sure to connect speakers to the front left
and right channels (L and R).
! It is also possible to only connect one of the
surround back speakers (SB) or neither.
! If you have two subwoofers, the second
subwoofer can be connected to the
SUBWOOFER 2 terminal. Connecting two
subwoofers increases the bass sound to
achieve more powerful sound reproduction. In
this case, the same sound is output from the
two subwoofers.
Important
! The Speaker System setting must be made if
you use any of the connections shown below
other than [A] (see Speaker system setting on
page 87).
! The speakers from which sound is output
can be switched according to the speaker
layout/usage pattern (sound is not necessarily
output from all connected speakers). Use
the SPEAKERS button to switch the speakers
from which sound is output. For details, see
Switching the speaker terminals on page 61.

A 9.2 ch surround system connects the left and
right front speakers (L/R), the center speaker
(C), the left and right front height speakers
(FHL/FHR), the left and right front wide speak-
ers (FWL/FWR), the left and right surround
speakers (SL/SR), the left and right surround
back speakers (SBL/SBR), and the subwoofers
(SW 1/SW 2).
It is not possible to produce sound simultane-
ously from the front height speakers and the
front wide speakers.
This surround system produces a more true-to-
life sound from above.
The speakers from which sound is output can
be switched using the SPEAKERS button. For
details, see Switching the speaker terminals on
page 61.

With these connections you can simultaneously
enjoy 7.2-channel surround sound in the main
zone with stereo playback of the same sound
on the B speakers. The same connections also
allow for 9.2-channel surround sound in the
main zone when not using the B speakers.
The speakers from which sound is output can
be switched using the SPEAKERS button. For
details, see Switching the speaker terminals on
page 61.
