7.1 Home Theater Audio
The following diagram shows a typical advanced home
theater audio eight-channel (7.1) speaker installation that
requires multichannel inputs on an AV receiver.
This is only a suggested configuration. Your system may
be different. If your AV receiver supports 7.1 and has
only 5.1 inputs, see “5.1 Home Theater Audio” on
page 44. AV receiver audio input connectors may be labeled
Surround, 7.1 or 8 Channel inputs, DVD, Ext. In, or
Multichannel Inputs.

Some AV receivers can generate (upmix) the
7.1 audio with 5.1 channels. Refer to your AV
receiver product documentation.

Both Media Center speaker settings and DVD
audio settings must be changed for proper
audio setup. Go to “Configuring Audio
Output” on page 139 and note your speaker
configuration choice for later software setup
steps.
