IMPORTANT:
After connecting the speakers, set the speaker setting
information properly:
• To obtain the best possible Surround/THX/DSP effect in Zone 1,
see “Basic Settings” on pages 35 to 44.
• To connect the speakers to the FRONT 2/ZONE 2 SPEAKERS
terminals, set the speaker usage correctly.
(See “
w
Setting the Zone 2/Speakers 2 Usage—ZONE 2/
SPEAKER 2” on page 43.)

Note:
Ideal speaker layout requires that all speakers be placed at the
same distance from the listener. However, since in some places it
may be difficult to fulfil this requirement, this unit can adjust the
delay time so that the sounds through all the speakers reach the
listener with the same timing. (See page 40.)
*
When using only one surround back speaker,
connect it to the LEFT terminals.
