Bi-amp connection
A bi-amp connection is to connect separate amplifiers to the tweeter terminals and woofer terminals of
speakers compatible with the bi-amp function. This prevents the back electromotive force (returned force
without output) of the woofer sent to the tweeter, which affects the sound quality of the tweeter, and you
can enjoy playback with higher-quality sound.
In this case, set “Amp Assign” of “Set up speakers” (
v
page 36) to “Bi-Amp”.

When making a bi-amp connection, the same signal is output from the front speaker terminal and the
SURR.BACK/AMP ASSIGN terminal. For surround playback of a multichannel source, if you connect the
center speaker, surround speakers and subwoofers, 5.1-channel playback is available.
NOTE
• Use speakers compatible with bi-amp connections.
• When making bi-amp connections, be sure to remove the short-circuiting plate or wire between the
speaker’s woofer and tweeter terminals.
For speaker impedance and speaker cable connections, see page 4.
5.1-channel + 2.1-channel connection
If front speakers for 2-channel playback are connected to the SURR. BACK / AMP ASSIGN terminals,
both speakers for multichannel playback and for 2-channel playback can be used, by switching.
In this case, set “Amp Assign” of “Set up speakers” (
v
page 36) to “2CH”.
