Switching the speaker impedance

We recommend using speakers of 8 Ω with this system,
but it is possible to switch the impedance setting if you
plan to use speakers with a 6 Ω impedance rating. Use
the front panel controls to do this.
• With the receiver in standby, press
ON while holding down the SPEAKERS button.
Each time you do this, you switch between the
impedance settings:
• SP 6 OHM – Use this setting if your speakers are
rated at 6 Ω.
• SP 8 OHM – Use this setting if your speakers are
rated at 8 Ω or more.

Checking your system settings

Use the status display screen to check your current
settings for features such as surround back channel
processing and your current MCACC preset.
