Bi-wiring your speakers
Your speakers can also be bi-wired if they support bi-amping.
! With these connections, the Speaker System setting makes no difference.
CAUTION
! Don't connect different speakers from the same terminal in this way.
! When bi-wiring as well, heed the cautions for bi-amping shown above.
%
To bi-wire a speaker, connect two speaker cords to the speaker terminal on the receiver.
Using a banana plug for the second connection is recommended.
Installing your speaker system
At the very least, front left and right speakers only are necessary. Note that your main surround speakers should
always be connected as a pair, but you can connect just one surround back speaker if you like (it must be con-
nected to the left surround back terminal).
[A] 7.2.2 channel surround system (Surround back/Top middle) connection
! If necessary, select '7.2.2/5.2.2/7.2ch' from the Speaker System menu.
See
Speaker system setting
on
page 113
to do this.
! When only connecting one surround back speaker, connect it to the SURROUND BACK L (Single) terminals.
! In Speaker Setting, when TMd is set to Dolby Sp (Front), Dolby Sp (Surr), or Dolby Sp (SB), connect the top
middle channel to Dolby Enabled Speaker.
