Bridging the Front Speakers A
The
FRONT L/R
and
SURR BACK/ZONE 3 L/R
terminal
posts can be used with front speakers and surround back speak-
ers respectively, or bridged together to provide almost double
the output power for the front speakers A.
• When bridging is used, surround back speakers cannot be
used.
• For bridging, the positive (+)
FRONT L/R
and
SURR
BACK/ZONE 3 L/R
terminal posts are used, but the negative
(–)
FRONT L/R
and
SURR BACK/ZONE 3 L/R
terminals
are not.
• Once you’ve completed the bridging connections shown below
and turned on the AV receiver, you must set the “
Speakers
Type(Front A)
” setting to “
BTL
” to enable bridging (
➔
51
).
• When front speakers A are bridged, front speakers B must be
wired normally or not used.
Note
•
Use only front speakers with an impedance of 8 ohms or higher for bridging. Failure to do so may seriously damage the AV
receiver.
•
When using bridging, make sure that your front speakers can handle the additional power.
Bi-amping the Front Speakers B
The
FRONT WIDE/ZONE 2 L/R
and
SURR BACK/
ZONE 3 L/R
terminal posts can be used with front wide
speakers and surround back speakers respectively, or bi-amped
to provide separate tweeter and woofer feeds for a pair of front
speakers B that support bi-amping, providing improved bass
and treble performance.
• When bi-amping is used, surround back speakers cannot be
used.
• For bi-amping, the
FRONT WIDE/ZONE 2 L/R
terminal
posts connect to the front speakers’ woofer terminals. And
the
SURR BACK/ZONE 3 L/R
terminal posts connect to
the front speakers’ tweeter terminals.
• Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections shown
below and turned on the AV receiver, you must set the
“
Speakers Type(Front B)
” setting to “
Bi-Amp
” to enable
biamping (
➔
51
).
• When front speakers B are biamped, front speakers A must be wired normally.
Left speaker
Right speaker
Important:
•
When making the bi-amping connections, be sure to remove the jumper bars that link the speaker’s tweeter (high) and woofer (low)
terminals.
•
Bi-amping can only be used with speakers that support bi-amping. Refer to your speaker manual.
