02 Connecting your equipment
Note
! Please refer to the manual that came with
your speakers for details on how to connect
the other end of the speaker cables to your
speakers.
! Use an RCA cable to connect the subwoofer.
It is not possible to connect using speaker
cables.
! 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.
Bi-amping your speakers
Bi-amping is when you connect the high
frequency driver and low frequency driver of
your speakers to different amplifiers for better
crossover performance. Your speakers must be
bi-ampable to do this (having separate termi-
nals for high and low) and the sound improve-
ment will depend on the kind of speakers you’re
using.

CAUTION
! Most speakers with both High and Low
terminals have two metal plates that connect
the High to the Low terminals. These must
be removed when you are bi-amping the
speakers or you could severely damage the
amplifier. See your speaker manual for more
information.
! If your speakers have a removable crossover
network, make sure you do not remove it for bi-
amping. Doing so may damage your speakers.
Bi-wiring your speakers
Your speakers can also be bi-wired if they sup-
port bi-amping.
! With these connections, the Speaker System
setting makes no difference.
CAUTION
! Don’t connect different speakers from the
same terminal in this way.
! When bi-wiring as well, heed the cautions for
bi-amping shown above.
% To bi-wire a speaker, connect two
speaker cords to the speaker terminal on
the receiver.
Installing your speaker system
At the very least, front left and right speakers only are necessary. Note that your main surround
speakers should always be connected as a pair, but you can connect just one surround back
speaker if you like (it must be connected to the left surround back terminal).
[A] 9.2 channel surround system (Front height/Front wide) connection
! If necessary, select ‘9.1ch FH/FW’ from the Speaker System menu.
See
Speaker system setting on Operating Instructions in CD-ROM to do this.
! When only connecting one surround back speaker, connect it to the SURROUND BACK L (Single)
terminals.
