Determining the speakers’ application

This unit permits you to build various surround systems, in accordance with the number of speakers you have.
! Be sure to connect speakers to the front left and right channels (L and R).
! It is also possible to only connect one of the surround back speakers (SB) or neither.
! If you have two subwoofers, the second subwoofer can be connected to the SUBWOOFER 2 terminal.
Connecting two subwoofers increases the bass sound to achieve more powerful sound reproduction. In this
case, the same sound is output from the two subwoofers.
! When neither the top middle, surround back, or front wide speaker is connected, Dolby Atmos does not play.
Choose one from Plans [A] to [F] below.
Important
! The Speaker System setting must be made if you use any of the connections shown below other than [A] (see
Speaker system setting on page 106 ).
! The speakers from which sound is output can be switched according to the speaker layout/usage pattern
(sound is not necessarily output from all connected speakers). Use the OUT P. button to switch the speakers
from which sound is output. For details, see Switching the speaker terminals on page 88 .
