6Powered Subwoofer

For 5.1-Channel System

This is a 5.1-channel system that is the basic surround system.

Front speakers output front stereo sound and a center speaker outputs center sound such as dialogs and vocals. Surround speakers create back sound field. Powered subwoofer reproduces bass sounds and creates rich sound field. The front speakers should be positioned at ear height, while the surround speakers should be positioned just above ear height. Center speaker should be set up facing the listening position. Place the powered subwoofer towards the front. Placing it between the center speaker and a front speaker gives you a natural sound even when playing music.

0The front speakers, center speaker, and surround speakers are counted as 5 channels, and the powered subwoofer is counted as 0.1 of a channel, giving us the name 5.1ch system.

Speaker B System

In a 5.1-Channel System, you can connect one more set of front speakers to use as a Speaker B System. In this state, the 5.1- Channel System becomes the Speaker A System and you can switch the same audio to output from A, B, or A+B. Note that sound is not output from Speaker B when Zone Speaker is used (P18).

78 Surround Back Speakers

For 7.1-Channel System (with

Surround Back Speakers)

This is a system with surround back speakers added to the basic 5.1-channel system. The connection of surround back speakers improves the sense of envelopment and connectivity of sound created by the back sound field and provides a more real sound field. You can select the Dolby Atmos listening mode, which realizes the most up-to-date 3D surround sound, when the input format is Dolby Atmos. With formats other than Dolby Atmos, you can still create a sound field by outputting sound from the surround back speakers when you select the Dolby Surround listening mode. The optimal positioning is for surround back speakers to be at ear height. Place the surround speakers in a more slightly forward position than you would in a 5.1-channel system. 0 If you are including surround back speakers in the setup, surround

speakers are required.

You can select the Dolby Atmos listening mode (5.1.2 channel playback), which realizes the most up-to-date 3D surround sound including overhead sounds, when the input format is Dolby Atmos. With formats other than Dolby Atmos, you can still create a sound field by outputting sound from the height speakers when you select the Dolby Surround listening mode. Front high speakers or rear high speakers should be situated at least 0.9 m higher than the front speakers. Front high speakers should be situated directly above the front speakers and the distance between the rear high speakers should match the distance between the front speakers. Both should be set up facing the listening position.
