Deciding where to place your speakers
To get the optimum surround sound effect, connect both
front and rear speakers. If you have a center speaker, place it
between both left and right front speakers.
Even though you do not have a full set of speakers, the
receiver is designed to give the best possible surround sound
effect. For details, see "Selecting the Center Mode" on page
