Determining the speakers’ application
This unit permits you to build various surround systems,
in accordance with the number of speakers you have.
• 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.
Choose one from Plans [A] to [E] below.
[A] 9.1 channel surround system (Front height)
*Default setting
• Speaker System setting: Normal(SB/FH)
A 9.1 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
surround speakers ( SL/SR), the left and right surround
back speakers ( SBL/SBR), and the subwoofer (SW).
This surround system produces a more true-to-life sound
from above.
[B] 9.1 channel surround system (Front wide)
• Speaker System setting: Normal(SB/FW)
This plan replaces the left and right front height speakers
shown in [A] with the left and right front wide speakers
(

This surround system produces a true-to-life sound over
a wider area.

amping connection (High quality surround)
