Getting Started
1: Installing speakers
This receiver allows you to use a 6.1 channel
system (6 speakers and one sub woofer).
To fully enjoy theater-like multi channel
surround sound requires five speakers (two
front speakers, a center speaker, and two
surround speakers) and a sub woofer (5.1
channel).

GSub woofer
You can enjoy high fidelity reproduction of
DVD software recorded sound in the Surround
EX format if you connect one additional
surround back speaker (6.1 channel) (see
“Using the surround back decoding mode” on
page 40).

Tip
Since the sub woofer does not emit highly
directional signals, you can place it wherever you
want.
