Connecting the AV receiver—Continued
Speaker Configuration
For 7.1-channel surround-sound playback, you need
seven speakers and a powered subwoofer.
The following table shows which channels you should
use based on the number of speakers you have.
* If you’re using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the
SURR BACK L terminals.
No matter how many speakers you use, a powered
subwoofer is recommended for a powerful and solid
bass.
To get the best from your surround-sound system, you
must set the speaker settings. You can do this
automatically (see page 39) or manually (see page 70).
Speaker Connection Precautions
Read the following before connecting your speakers:
• You can connect speakers with an impedance of
between 6 and 16 ohms. If you use speakers with a
lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high
volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in
amp protection circuit may be activated.
• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before
making any connections.
• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. Connect
positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals,
and negative (–) terminals to only negative (–)
terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the
sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.
• Unnecessarily long or very thin speaker cables may
affect the sound quality and should be avoided.
• Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires.
Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
• Don’t connect more than one
cable to each speaker
terminal. Doing so may
damage the AV receiver.
• Don’t connect a speaker to several terminals.
