Installing your speaker system

At the very least, front left and right speakers only are necessary. Note that your main surround speakers should
always be connected as a pair, but you can connect just one surround back speaker if you like (it must be con-
nected to the left surround back terminal).
Standard surround connection
! When only connecting one surround back speaker, connect it to the SURROUND BACK L (Single) terminals.
The top middle terminals can also be used for the front wide and Speaker B speakers.
