Connect the jacks on the Lo (or Hi) side of the
front speakers to the FRONT A terminals,
and connect the jacks on the Hi (or Lo) side of
the front speakers to the SURROUND BACK
(ZONE 2) terminals. Make sure that metal
fittings of Hi/Lo attached to the speakers have
been removed from the speakers to avoid
receiver malfunction.

Speaker Settings menu (page 102).
Notes
• You cannot use the FRONT B terminals for a bi-
amplifier connection.
• Make the bi-amplifier settings before you perform
the Auto Calibration function.
• If you make the bi-amplifier settings, the speaker
level, balance, and equalizer settings of the
surround back speakers become invalid, and those
of the front speakers are used.
• Signals output from the PRE OUT jacks are used
with the same settings as those of the SPEAKERS
terminals.
• If the speaker pattern is set so that there are
surround back speakers, you cannot set the
SURROUND BACK (ZONE 2) terminals for a bi-
amplifier connection.
• When you operate the receiver without using the
GUI, set “SB ASSIGN” to “BI-AMP” in
“SPEAKER SETTINGS” (page 126).
