• Be sure to connect speakers firmly and
correctly according to the channel(left and
right) and the polarity (+ and -). If the
connections are faulty, no sound will be
heard from the speakers, and if the polarity
of the speaker connection is incorrect, the
sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
• For installing the speakers, refer to "Speaker
placement" on page 12.
• After installing the speakers, first adjust the
speaker settings according to your
environment and speaker layout. (For
details, refer to "SETTING THE SPEAKER
/ROOM EQ SETUP" on page 61.)
Surround back speakers
• When using only one surround back
speaker, you should connect it to
SURROUND BACK/MULTI LEFT channel.
• Because this receiver cannot drive the
surround back speakers and the ROOM 2
speakers simultaneously, you should assign
their power amplifier correctly depending on
how to use them. (For details, refer to
"CONNECTING ROOM 2 OUTS" on page
13 and "When selecting the AMP ASSIGN"
on page 52.)
Front Bi-Amp Connections.
• Some speakers are equipped with two sets
of input terminals, for bi-amplification.
• If no other surround back speakers are
used, you can connect the FRONT and the
SURROUND BACK/MULTI channels to the
bi-amp-capable speakers. (For details, refer
to the operating instructions of your bi-amp-
capable speakers.)
• To drive the bi-amp-capable speakers, you
should assign the power amplifier to "BI-
AMP".
Note :
• Before making bi-amp connections, remove
the short-circuiting bars from the terminals of
your speakers.
Caution :
• Be sure to use the speakers with the
impedance of 6 ohms or above.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each
other or any metal part of this unit. This
could damage this unit and/or the speakers.
