•By default, the speaker system setting is set to 9.1 channels.

•The AVR-5805CI can be configured for 10 speaker playback using two pairs of surround speakers (A+B) and one pair of surround back speakers as shown below.

•The output of each power amplifier can be assigned to any desired channel to best suit the application.

For details, refer to “Setting the Channel Setup” and “Setting the Power Amplifier Assignment” ( page 129 ~ 133).

•When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the other components.

•Precautions when connecting speakers

If a speaker is placed near a TV or video monitor, the colors on the screen may be disturbed by the speaker’s magnetism. If this should happen, move the speaker away to a position where it does not have this effect.

NOTE:

•Route the connection cables, etc., in such a way that they do not obstruct the ventilation holes.

•When using only one surround back speaker, connect it to left channel (L5).
