*The illustration shows the VSX-D812, but connections for the VSX-D712 are the same.

•The multi-channel input can only be used when DVD 5.1 ch (or DVD 7.1 ch) is selected (see page 43).

•If the component you are connecting (to the VSX-D812) only has one surround back channel output, change the Surround back channel input setting (page 50) to SB 1ch IN.
