1: Installing the speakers

This receiver allows you to use a 7.1 channel system (7 speakers and one subwoofer).

Enjoying a 5.1/7.1 channel system

To fully enjoy theater-like multi channel surround sound requires five speakers (two front speakers, a center speaker, and two surround speakers) and a subwoofer (5.1 channel).

Tips

•When you connect a 6.1 channel speaker system, place the surround back speaker behind the listening position (page 49).

•Since the subwoofer does not emit highly directional signals, you can place it wherever you want.
