Using an External Center
Speaker
Since this system incorporates a center speaker (see
page 5), you don't have to connect a center speaker.
However, it is possible to connect a center speaker to
the CENTER SPEAKER terminals if you already have
one. Be sure to use a speaker with a 8 to 16 ohm
impedance for the center speaker.

Depress the CENTER SPEAKER button on the rear

internal center speaker and directs the center channel
signal to the CENTER SPEAKER terminals.

Connecting an external center speaker lets you choose
from 4 different Dolby Pro Logic Surround center
modes: NORMAL, WIDE, 3 CH (3 Channel logic), or
PHANTOM. Use the NORMAL or WIDE mode. For
details on Dolby Pro Logic Surround sound, see the
