S. Back:
If no surround back speakers are used in the main
room, their amplifier channels can be assigned for
other uses, or one of the two channels can drive
one surround back speaker in the main room, while
the other channel can drive a monaural speaker in
another zone.
• Front:
This provides a bi-amp mode for the two main
front speakers, replicating the front left and front
right amplifier channels’ outputs.
• Front B:
Both surround back power amplifier channels
can be used to provide a second set of stereo
outputs that match the front left and right
speakers, providing a Speaker B option for stereo
sound in another location ( page 47).
• ZONE2:
This mode assigns the Surround Back amplifier
channels to provide ZONE2 speaker-level
outputs from the Surround Back speaker jacks,
with the option of monaural or stereo operation
depending on the “Channel Setup” setting.
• ZONE3:
This mode assigns the Surround Back amplifier
channels to provide ZONE3 speaker-level
outputs from the Surround Back speaker jacks,
with the option of monaural or stereo operation
depending on the “Channel Setup” setting.
• SB/Z2:
When only one surround back speaker is used in
the main room (connected to the SBL speaker
terminals), the surround back right amplifier
channel can be used to provide monaural output
to a speaker located in ZONE2.
• SB/Z3:
When only one surround back speaker is used in
the main room (connected to the SBL speaker
terminals), the surround back right amplifier
channel can be used to provide monaural output
to a speaker located in ZONE3.
• Z2/Z3:
When no surround back speakers are used in the
main room, this mode provides monaural sound
to a speaker in ZONE2 connected to the SBL
speaker terminals, with monaural sound to a
speaker in ZONE3 connected to the SBR speaker
terminals.
• SB/– – –
Only the Surround Back Left speaker terminals
are active.
• – – –
Both Surround Back speaker terminals are
inactive.
Front Bi-Amp connections
Certain loudspeakers are equipped with two sets of
input terminals, for bi-amplification. The AVC-A11XV
Amp Assign mode allows you to power bi-amp-
capable speakers with two amplifier channels. Be
sure to consult the owner’s manual of your bi-amp-
capable speakers for further information before
proceeding.

remove the short-circuiting bar included with
the speaker.

configuration is set to “1 speaker”.
• The “Z2/Z3” mode can only be selected if the
playback channels are configured as monaural
(“Mono”) in the Channel Setup menu.
