Connecting 5.1-channel speaker system with front B speaker connection

If you are not using surround back speakers or front high speakers, you can connect additional front B speakers to the SPEAKERS SURROUND BACK/BI-AMP/FRONT HIGH/FRONT B terminals.

Connect each speaker as illustrated below.

Before connecting cables, be sure to disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead).

For details on how to connect speaker cables to the receiver, see “How to connect speaker cables.”

  • After you have installed and connected your speakers, be sure to select the speaker pattern you want using [Speaker Pattern] in the [Speaker Settings] menu.
  • You can only set [Surround Back Speaker Assign] if the speaker pattern is set to a setting that does not have surround back and front high speakers.
