Surround back speaker setting
• Default setting: Normal (SB)
There are several ways you can use the surround back
speaker channels with this system. In addition to a
normal home theater setup where they are used for the
surround back speakers, they can be used for bi-amping
the front speakers or as a separate speaker system in
another room.
1 Select ‘Surr Back System’ from the System Setup
menu.
See Making receiver settings from the System Setup menu
above if you’re not already at this screen.
2 Select the surround back speaker setting.
• Normal (SB) – Select for normal home theater use
with surround back speakers in your main (speaker
system A) setup.
• Speaker B – Select to use the (surround back) B
speaker terminals to listen to stereo playback in
another room (see Speaker B setup on page 48).
• Front Bi-Amp – Select this setting if you’re bi-
amping your front speakers (see Bi-amping your front
speakers on page 48).
3 When you’re finished, press RETURN.
You return to the System Setup menu.
Note
1 Make sure not to switch off the power when using the System Setup menu.
2 • The OSD will not appear if you have connected using the HDMI output to your TV. Use component, S-video, or composite connections for system setup.
• You can’t use the System Setup menu when the iPod or USB is selected as the input source.
