Connecting the AV receiver—Continued

The FRONT L/R and SURR BACK/ZONE 3 L/R ter-

minal posts can be used with front speakers and surround

back speakers respectively, or bridged together to pro-

vide almost double the output power for the front

speakers A.

• When bridging is used, surround back speakers cannot

be used.

• For bridging, the positive (+) FRONT L/R and SURR

BACK/ZONE 3 L/R terminal posts are used, but the

negative (–) FRONT L/R and SURR BACK/ZONE 3

L/R terminals are not.

• Once you’ve completed the bridging connections

shown below and turned on the AV receiver, you must

set the “Speakers Type(FrontA)” setting to “BTL” to

enable bridging (see page 57).

• When front Speakers A are bridged, front Speakers B

must be wired normally or not used.

Notes:

• Use only front speakers with an impedance of 8

ohms or higher for bridging. Failure to do so may

seriously damage the AV receiver.

• When using bridging, make sure that your front speak-

ers can handle the additional power.
