Other speaker connections

! Your favorite speaker connections can be selected even if you have fewer than 5.2 speakers (except front left/

right speakers).

! When not connecting a subwoofer, connect speakers with low frequency reproduction capabilities to the front

channel. (The subwoofer’s low frequency component is played from the front speakers, so the speakers could

be damaged.)

! After connecting, be sure to conduct the Full Auto MCACC (speaker environment setting) procedure. See

Automatically conducting optimum sound tuning (Full Auto MCACC) on page 46.
