Using a bi-amplifier connection If you are not using surround back speakers, you can use the SURROUND BACK SPEAKERS terminals for the front speakers for use with a bi-amplifier connection. To connect speakers Front speaker (R) Front speaker (L) Notes • You cannot use the FRONT SPEAKERS B jacks for a bi-amplifier connection. • When you use the auto calibration function, make the bi-amplifier settings before you perform auto calibration. • If you make the bi-amplifier settings, the speaker level, balance, and equalizer settings of the surround back speakers become invalid, and those of the front speakers are used. • Signals output from the PRE OUT jacks are used with the same settings as those of the SPEAKERS terminals. Hi Hi Lo Lo Other Operations Connect the jacks on the Lo (or Hi) side of the front speakers to the FRONT SPEAKERS A jacks, and connect the jacks on the Hi (or Lo) side of the front speakers to the SURROUND BACK SPEAKERS terminals. Make sure that metal fittings of Hi/Lo attached to the speakers have been removed from the speakers. Not doing so may cause a malfunction of the receiver. To set up speakers Set "Sur Back Assign" to "BI-AMP" in the Auto Calibration settings menu (page 73). The same signals output from the FRONT SPEAKERS A jacks can be output from the SURROUND BACK SPEAKERS terminals by setting "Sur Back Assign" to "BI-AMP." 107GB
