If you connect a component to a digital audio input, you must assign that input to an input selector. For example, if you connect your CD player to the OPTICAL IN 1, you must assign “OPT 1” to the “TV/CD” input selector. Here are the default assignments.

Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup, or set them manually, which is useful if you change one of the connected speakers after using

Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup.

Press RECEIVER and use SP LAYOUT on the remote controller to select Speakers A or Speakers B.

Note

These settings are disabled when:

a pair of headphones is connected, or

the “Audio TV Out” setting is set to “On” (64) and an input selector other than HDMI is selected.

Speaker Settings

If you change these settings, you must run Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup again (32).

If the impedance of any speaker is 4 ohms or more but less than 6, set the minimum speaker impedance to 4 ohms. To use bi-amping or bridging, you must change the “Speakers Type(Front A)” or “Speakers Type(Front B)” setting (51). For details on speaker wire connec- tion, see “Connecting the AV Receiver” (17 to 19).

Note

When bridging is used, the AV receiver is able to drive up to 7.2 speakers in the main room.

When bi-amping is used, the AV receiver is able to drive up to 7.2 speakers in the main room.

Before you change these settings, turn down the volume.
