Setting the Channel Setup
With this setting it is possible to change the number of
channels played in the different zones according to the
purpose.
This configures the AVC-A11XV according to whether
or not you have surround “B” speakers connected,
and whether or not you have surround back (SB)
speaker(s) connected.
The number of channels output from the pre-out
connectors exclusively for ZONE2 and 3 can be set to
“Mono” or “Stereo” according to the method of
playback in the various multi-zones.
Adjustments made in this section will have an
effect on the various “

Setting the Power Amplifier
Assignment
AVC-A11XV’s power amplifiers for seven channels
(except the front channel), can be assigned to any
channels in the MAIN ZONE, ZONE2 or ZONE3 and
output to the speakers. In this way, power amplifiers
not being used in the main zone can be assigned for
multi-zone use, the front speakers can be connected
with a “Bi-Amp”, etc., so you can create the desired
speaker system.
The available power amplifier channels that can be
re-assigned may differ, according to settings
previously made in the “Channel Setup” menu
( page 49).
