Getting Started, Notes, SPEAKERS switch OFF/A/B/A+B on

Page 17 highlights

Getting Started a) If you have an additional front speaker system, connect them to the SPEAKERS FRONT B terminals. You can select the front speaker system you want to use with the SPEAKERS switch (OFF/A/B/A+B) on the front panel (page 44). b) If you connect only one surround back speaker, connect it to the SPEAKERS SURROUND BACK L terminals. c) When you connect a subwoofer with an auto standby function, turn off the function when watching movies. If the auto standby function is set to on, it turns to standby mode automatically based on the level of the input signal to a subwoofer, then sound may not be output. Notes • When you connect all the speakers with a nominal impedance of 8 ohms or higher, set "Speaker Impedance" in the Speaker settings menu to "8 ohms". In other connections, set it to "4 ohms". For details, see "8: Setting the speakers" (page 42). • Before connecting the AC power cord (mains lead), make sure that metallic wires of the speaker cords are not touching each other between the SPEAKERS terminals. Tip To connect certain speakers to another power amplifier, use the PRE OUT jacks. The same signal is output from both the SPEAKERS terminals and the PRE OUT jacks. For example, if you want to connect just the front speakers to another amplifier, connect that amplifier to the PRE OUT FRONT L and R jacks. 17US

Getting Started
a)
If you have an additional front speaker
system, connect them to the SPEAKERS
FRONT B terminals. You can select the front
speaker system you want to use with the
SPEAKERS switch (OFF/A/B/A+B) on the
front panel (page 44).
b)
If you connect only one surround back
speaker, connect it to the SPEAKERS
SURROUND BACK L terminals.
c)
When you connect a subwoofer with an auto
standby function, turn off the function when
watching movies. If the auto standby
function is set to on, it turns to standby mode
automatically based on the level of the input
signal to a subwoofer, then sound may not be
output.
Notes
• When you connect all the speakers with a nominal
impedance of 8 ohms or higher, set “Speaker
Impedance” in the Speaker settings menu to “8
ohms”. In other connections, set it to “4 ohms”. For
details, see “8: Setting the speakers” (page 42).
• Before connecting the AC power cord (mains
lead), make sure that metallic wires of the speaker
cords are not touching each other between the
SPEAKERS terminals.
Tip
To connect certain speakers to another power
amplifier, use the PRE OUT jacks. The same signal
is output from both the SPEAKERS terminals and
the PRE OUT jacks. For example, if you want to
connect just the front speakers to another amplifier,
connect that amplifier to the PRE OUT FRONT L
and R jacks.
