1: Deciding on the Speaker System
Decide on the speaker system you want to set up according to the number of speakers and
subwoofers that you are using. The illustration and table below indicate the types of
speakers that can be connected to the receiver and the general positions for placing the
speakers.
As the subwoofer (SW) does not emit highly directional signals, you can place it wherever you want.
This manual describes the installation, connection, and setting procedures using the typical
speaker systems indicated in the table below as examples. To learn about all speaker
systems supported by this receiver, see “Selecting the speaker pattern” (page 38).
