You can enjoy the surround sound by one surround back
speaker. When using one surround back speaker,
– set "S BACK OUT" to "SB OUT
– connect the surround back speaker to the left surround back
speaker terminal. (No sound comes from the speaker if
you connect it to the right surround back speaker
terminal.)
Connecting the powered subwoofer
By connecting a subwoofer, you can enhance the bass or
reproduce the original LFE signals recorded in digital software.
Connect the input jack of a powered subwoofer to the
SUBWOOFER OUT jack on the rear panel, using a cord
with RCA pin plugs (not supplied).
• Refer also to the manual supplied with your subwoofer.
After connecting all the speakers and/or a subwoofer, set the
speaker setting information properly to obtain the best possible
surround effect. For details, see pages 20 to 24.
NOTE
You can place a subwoofer wherever you like since bass sound is
non-directional. Normally place it in front of you.
