Speaker Setup

Note:

The SURR BACK/ZONE 2 PRE OUT and SURR BACK/ZONE 2 SPEAKER terminals

In order to have 7.1-channel playback in the main room, you must set the Powered Zone 2 setting to “Not Activated.” When set to “Not Activated,” the surround back signals are output from the SURR BACK/ZONE 2 PRE OUT and SURR BACK/ZONE 2 SPEAKER terminals. Connect the surround back speakers to the SURR BACK/ ZONE 2 SPEAKER terminals or to the speakers terminals of the power amplifier connected to the SURR BACK/ZONE 2 PRE OUT terminals.

When you are not using the surround back speakers in the main room and using the internal amplifier to power the speakers for the remote zone (Zone 2), set the Powered Zone 2 setting to “Activated.” When set to “Activated,” the Zone 2 signals are output from the SURR BACK/ZONE 2 PRE OUT and SURR BACK/ZONE 2 SPEAKER terminals. Connect the remote zone (Zone 2) speakers to the SURR BACK/ZONE 2 SPEAKER terminals or to the speakers terminals of the power amplifier connected to the SURR BACK/ZONE 2 PRE OUT terminals.

1-2. Speaker Distance sub-menu

Here you will enter the distance from each speaker to your normal listening position. This is important for the timing of the acoustics to create the proper sound space that the DTR-8.2 and today’s sound systems are able to produce.

Notes:

Speakers that you selected “No” or “None” for in the Speaker Config sub-menu will not appear.

The difference between the distances of different speakers cannot be set to more than 20 feet.
