Note
The front high speakers can also be connected to the SURR BACK OR FRONT HIGH SPEAKERS terminals. When doing so, set
Surr Back/Front High” in Speaker Setup to “Front High” (37).
Connecting a Powered Subwoofer
Using a suitable cable, connect the AV receiver’s
SUBWOOFER PRE OUT jack to an input on
your powered subwoofer, as shown. If your sub-
woofer is unpowered and you’re using an external
amplifier, connect the SUBWOOFER PRE OUT
jack to an input on the amp.
Bi-amping the Front Speakers
The FRONT L/R and SURR BACK OR FRONT
HIGH L/R terminal posts can be used with front speak-
ers and surround back speakers respectively, or bi-
amped to provide separate tweeter and woofer feeds for
a pair of front speakers that support bi-amping, provid-
ing improved bass and treble performance.
• When bi-amping is used, the AV receiver is able to
drive up to a 5.1 speaker system in the main room.
• For bi-amping, the FRONT L/R terminal posts con-
nect to the front speakers’ woofer terminals; the
SURR BACK OR FRONT HIGH L/R terminal
posts connect to the front speakers’ tweeter terminals.
• Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections
shown below and turned on the AV receiver, you must
set the “Speakers Type” setting to “Bi-Amp” to
enable bi-amping (37).
Important:
When making the bi-amping connections, be sure to remove the jumper bars that link the speakers’ tweeter (high) and woofer (low)
terminals.
Bi-amping can be used only with speakers that support bi-amping. Refer to your speaker manual.
