3: Connecting speakers
Connect your speakers to the receiver. This receiver allows you to use a 7.1 channel system.
To fully enjoy theater-like multi channel surround sound requires five speakers (two front speakers, a
center speaker, and two surround speakers) and a sub woofer (5.1 channel).
You can enjoy high fidelity reproduction of DVD software recorded in the Surround EX format if you
connect one additional surround back speaker (6.1 channel) or two surround back speakers (7.1
channel) (see "Selecting the surround back decoding mode" on page 33).

Tips
• When you connect 6.1 channel speaker system, place the surround back speaker right behind the listening position
(see "When placing only one surround back speaker" illustration on page 18).
• Since the sub woofer does not emit highly directional signals, you can place it wherever you want.
Speaker impedance
To enjoy the best possible multi channel surround, connect speakers with a nominal impedance of 8
ohms or higher to the FRONT, CENTER, SURROUND and SURROUND BACK terminals, and set
the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR to "8Ω". Refer to the operating instructions supplied with your
speakers if you are not sure of their impedance. (This information is often on the back of the speaker.)
Alternatively, you may connect speakers with nominal impedances between 4 and 8 ohms to any or all
of the speaker terminals. However, be sure to set the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR to "4Ω" if you
connect even one speaker with a nominal impedance between 4 and 8 ohms.
Note
Be sure to turn the power off before adjusting the
