1: Installing speakers

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

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 sub woofer (5.1 channel system).

You can enjoy high fidelity reproduction of DVD software recorded sound in the Surround EX format if you connect one additional surround back speaker (6.1 channel system) or

two surround back speakers (7.1 channel system). (see “Using the surround back decoding mode (SB DECODING)” on page 60).

Tips

When you connect a 6.1 channel speaker system, place the surround back speaker behind the listening position.

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