Surround left and right speakers (SL and SR)
Connect the surround speakers to the SURROUND
speaker terminals even if you place the surround speakers
behind the listening position.
For the smooth and unbroken sound field behind the
listening position, place the surround left and right
speakers farther back compared with the placement in the
7.1-channel speaker layout.
The surround back channel signals are directed to the
surround left and right speakers when “SUR.B L/R SP” is
set to “NONE” (see page 81).

For other speaker combinations
You can enjoy multi-channel sources with sound field programs by using a speaker combination other than the 7.1/
6.1/5.1-channel speaker combinations.
Use the automatic setup feature (see page 37) or set the “SPEAKER SET” parameters in “MANUAL SETUP” (see
page 80) to output the surround sounds at the connected speakers.
