Connecting your equipment
Determining the speakers’ application
This unit permits you to build various surround systems, in accordance with the number of speakers you have.
! Be sure to connect speakers to the front left and right channels (L and R).
! It is also possible to only connect one of the surround back speakers (SB) or neither.
! If you have two subwoofers, the second subwoofer can be connected to the SUBWOOFER 2 terminal.
Connecting two subwoofers increases the bass sound to achieve more powerful sound reproduction. In this
case, the same sound is output from the two subwoofers.
Choose one from Plans [A] to [E] below.
Important
! The Speaker System setting must be made if you use any of the connections shown below other than [A] (see
Speaker system setting on page 81).
! Sound does not come through simultaneously from the front height, front wide, speaker B and surround back
speakers. Output speakers are different depending on the input signal or listening mode.

A 7.2 ch surround system connects the left and right front speakers (L/R), the center speaker (C), the left and right
front height speakers (FHL/FHR), the left and right surround speakers (SL/SR), the left and right surround back
speakers (SBL/SBR), and the subwoofers (SW 1/SW 2).
It is not possible to produce sound simultaneously from the front height speakers and the surround back

playback of the same sound on the B speakers. The same connections also allow for 7.2-channel surround sound
in the main zone when not using the B speakers.
