Getting Started 1: Installing speakers This receiver allows you to use a 7.1 channel system (7 speakers and one subwoofer). Enjoying a 5.1/7.1 channel system To fully enjoy theater-like multi-channel surround sound requires five speakers (two front speakers, a center speaker, and two surround speakers) and a subwoofer (5.1 channel system). Example of a 5.1 channel speaker system configuration You can enjoy high fidelity reproduction of DVD or Blu-ray Disc software recorded sound in the Surround EX format if you connect one additional surround back speaker (6.1 channel system) or two surround back speakers (7.1 channel system.)
