When you select “PLIIz Height” as the
sound field, or the digital input signal
contains signals for the front high channels,
sound is output from the front high speakers.
In other cases, sound is output from the
surround back speakers.
If you always want to output sound from the
front high speakers, set the speaker pattern
so that there are no surround back speakers
(page 45).

When you connect a subwoofer with an auto
standby function, turn off the function when
watching movies. If the auto standby
function of the subwoofer is set to on, it goes
into standby automatically based on the level
of the input signal to a subwoofer, then
sound may not be output.
Notes
• When you connect all the speakers with a nominal
impedance of 8 ohms or higher, set “Impedance” in
the Speaker settings menu to “8
Ω.” In other
connections, set it to “4
Ω.” For details, see “9:
Setting the speakers” (page 44).
• Before connecting the AC power cord (mains
lead), make sure that metallic wires of the speaker
cords are not touching each other between the
SPEAKERS terminals.
Tips
• You can loosen or tighten the SPEAKERS terminal
easily using the supplied speaker cord connection
tool.
• To connect certain speakers to another power
amplifier, use the PRE OUT jacks. The same signal
is output from both the SPEAKERS terminals and
the PRE OUT jacks. For example, if you want to
connect just the front speakers to another amplifier,
connect that amplifier to the PRE OUT FRONT L
and R jacks.
ZONE 2 connection
You can assign the SURROUND BACK/
ZONE 2 terminals F and G to the speakers
of the zone 2. Set “Sur Back Assign” to
“ZONE2” in the Speaker settings menu.
See “Using Multi-zone Features” (page 94)
for details on connection and operation in
zone 2.
Note
If the speaker pattern is set so that there are surround
back speakers or front high speakers, you cannot use
the speakers of the zone 2 as intended.
