When using just one surround back speaker, connect it to the left channel (SBL).
NOTE
By default, the AVR-4308CI's "Amp Assign" setting is set to "ZONE2" , so sound is not output simply by
connecting a speaker to the surround back terminal. To use as the surround back speaker for the main zone,
either turn the ZONE2 power off or change the "Amp Assign" setting (vpage 73, 74).
