Using a bi-amplifier
connection
If you are not using surround back speakers
and front high speakers, you can use the
SURROUND BACK (ZONE 2) terminals for
the front speakers for use with a bi-amplifier
connection.
To connect speakers
Connect the jacks on the Lo (or Hi) side of the
front speakers to the FRONT A terminals,
and connect the jacks on the Hi (or Lo) side of
the front speakers to the SURROUND BACK
(ZONE 2) terminals. Make sure that metal
fittings of Hi/Lo attached to the speakers have
been removed from the speakers to avoid
receiver malfunction.
To set up speakers
For details, see “Speaker Connection” in the
Speaker Settings menu (page 104).
Notes
• You cannot use the FRONT B/FRONT HIGH
terminals for a bi-amplifier connection.
• Make the bi-amplifier settings before you perform
the Auto Calibration function.
•If you make the bi-amplifier settings, the speaker
level, balance, and equalizer settings of the
surround back speakers become invalid, and those
of the front speakers are used.
•Signals output from the PRE OUT jacks are used
with the same settings as those of the SPEAKERS
terminals.
• If the speaker pattern is set so that there are
surround back speakers or front high speakers, you
cannot set the SURROUND BACK (ZONE 2)
terminals for a bi-amplifier connection.
• When you operate the receiver without using the
GUI, set “SB ASSIGN” to “BI-AMP” in
“SPEAKER SETTINGS” (page 123).
