Do not forget to take steps instructed in “Detecting speakers automatically” (á page 14) after connecting a new speaker or making a similar change.
Speakers designed for bi-wiring have separate connection terminals for high frequency and low frequency signals.
• Bi-wiring prevents high frequency and low frequency signals from interfering with each other. It offers playback in high audio quality.
• Different amplifiers for high frequency and low frequency signals produce bi-amp stereo sounds that are clearer and higher in audio
quality when you play sources containing analogue audio and 2-channel PCM signals (á page 18).
• HF and LF stand for high frequencies and low frequencies, respectively.
• Make sure to connect speakers’ HF terminals with the unit’s FRONT B terminals, and speakers’ LF terminals with the unit’s FRONT A
terminals. “Correcting the HF and LF difference” (á page 32) becomes unavailable when you make reverse connections.
• Make sure to select “ YES ” in “Setting bi-wiring connections” (á page 31) when you connect the unit to speakers designed for bi-
wiring. The speakers do not produce adequate sounds unless you make this setting.
