Speaker system setting

• Default setting: Normal(SB/FH)
There are several ways you can use the speaker
terminals with this receiver. In addition to a
normal home theater setup where they are
used for the front height speakers or front wide
speakers, they can be used for bi-amping the
front speakers or as an independent speaker
system in another room.
1 Select 'Speaker System' from the
Manual SP Setup menu.
See Making receiver settings from the System
Setup menu on page 102 if you're not already at
this screen.
Note
1 Depending on the positions of the speakers and the sound source, in some cases it may not be possible to achieve
good results. In this case, set the setting to ON SIDE or IN REAR.
2 Select the speaker system setting.
• Normal(SB/FH) – Select for normal home
theater use with front height speakers in
your main (speaker system A) setup.
• Normal(SB/FW) – Select for normal home
theater use with front wide speakers in
your main (speaker system A) setup.
• Speaker B – Select to use the B speaker
terminals to listen to stereo playback in
another room (see Switching the speaker

you're bi-amping your front speakers (see

another zone (see Using the MULTI-ZONE

3 If you selected in Step 2, any one of
Normal(SB/FH), Normal(SB/FW), or Speaker
B, select the placement of the surround
speakers.
In a 7.1-channel surround system with
surround speakers placed directly at the sides
of the listening position, the surround sound
of 5.1-channel sources is heard from the side.
This function mixes the sound of the surround
speakers with the surround back speakers so
that the surround sound is heard from
diagonally to the rear as it should be.
• ON SIDE – Select when the surround
speakers is positioned right beside you.
• IN REAR – Select when the surround
speaker is positioned obliquely behind you.
