Determining the speakers' application
This unit is equipped with speaker terminals for 11 channels, allowing users to select a variety of speaker layouts/
usage patterns according to their tastes. The terminals to which the speakers should be connected differ accord-
ing to the speaker layout/usage pattern. Select one speaker layout/usage pattern before connecting the speakers.
For instructions on connections, see
Installing your speaker system
! Be sure to connect speakers to the front left and right channels (L and R).
! It is also possible to only connect one of the surround back speakers (SB) or neither.
! If you have two subwoofers, the second subwoofer can be connected to the SUBWOOFER 2 terminal.
Connecting two subwoofers increases the bass sound to achieve more powerful sound reproduction. In this
case, the same sound is output from the two subwoofers.
Important
! The Speaker System setting must be made if you use any of the connections shown below other than [A] (see
Speaker system setting
on
page
93).
! The speakers from which sound is output can be switched according to the speaker layout/usage pattern
(sound is not necessarily output from all connected speakers). Use the SPEAKERS button to switch the speak-
ers from which sound is output. For details, see

A 9.2 ch surround system connects the left and right front speakers (L/R), the center speaker (C), the left and right
front height speakers (FHL/FHR), the left and right front wide speakers (FWL/FWR), the left and right surround
speakers (SL/SR), the left and right surround back speakers (SBL/SBR), and the subwoofers (SW 1/SW 2).
