Connecting the AV receiver Connecting Your Speakers About Speakers A and Speakers B Speakers A and Speakers B allows you to have two speaker configurations of up to 7.2 speakers. Each configuration has its own pair of stereo front speakers and can use the same subwoofer, center, surround, and surround back speakers, as required. You could, for example, use Speakers A when watching a DVD movie with 7.2-channels surround sound and use Speakers B for serious music listening with a pair of stereo speakers (2-channels). The speakers are configured by using the "Speaker Settings" on page 57 and "Speaker Setup" on page 95. Front Speakers A and front Speakers B can be wired normally, bi-amped, or bridged, but A and B cannot be bi-amped or bridged at the same time. For example, if front Speakers A are bridged, front Speakers B can only be wired normally. Similarly, if front Speakers B are bi-amped, Speakers A can only be wired normally. When bridging or bi-amping is used, the AV receiver can drive up to 5.2 speakers in the main room. See pages 22 to 26 for more information. The Speakers A and Speakers B configurations are selected by using the [SP LAYOUT] button on the remote controller. Only one configuration can be selected at a time. The versatility offered by the Speakers A and Speakers B configurations means you can configure the AV receiver to suit your exact requirements and application.
