Certain loudspeakers are equipped with two sets of input terminals, for bi-amplification. The AVR- 786 Power Amp Assign. mode allows you to power bi-amp-capable speakers with two amplifier

channels ( page 43). Be sure to consult the owner’s manual of your bi-amp-capable speakers for further information before proceeding.

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 cause this effect.

NOTE:

•When using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the left channel.
