NOTE
For surround back speakers :
• Since "Amp Assign" of AVR-1909 is set to "ZONE2" by default, audio is not output from the surround
back speakers. When using the surround back speakers with MAIN ZONE, change the "Amp Assign"
setting to "7.1ch" (vpage 35).
• When using just one surround back speaker, connect it to the left channel (SBL).
For ZONE2 speakers :
• For multi-zone connection and operation, see "Amp Assign / Multi-zone Connections and Operations"
(vpage 69 ~ 72).
