Installing the Speakers
The AVR-4810CI supports up to 11.1-channel surround 
sound playback by adding front height and front wide 
channels  to  the  7.1-channel  (Front/Center/Surround/
Surround Back/Subwoofer).
Installing  front  height  and  front  wide speakers offers 
an  even  wider  and  deeper  sensation  compared  with 
traditional  surround  spacing  thanks  to  the  advanced 
simulation  surround  technology  Audyssey  DSX  and 
Dolby Pro Logic gz decoder.
To use Audyssey DSX, install front wide or front height 
speakers. (Refer to page 121 for more information on 
Audyssey DSX)
To use Dolby Pro Logic gz, install front height speakers. 
(Refer to page 120 for more information on Dolby Pro 
Logic gz)
