Bi-Amp connection

Basic version
You can use the front speakers via the bi-amp connection.
A bi-amp connection is to connect separate amplifiers to the tweeter terminals and woofer terminals of
speakers compatible with the bi-amp function. This prevents the back electromotive force (returned force
without output) of the woofer sent to the tweeter, which affects the sound quality of the tweeter, and you
can enjoy playback with higher-quality sound.
In this case, set “Amp Assign” to “Bi-AMP” in steps 3 and 4 for “Set up “Amp Assign”” (vpage 67).

For surround playback of a multichannel source, if you connect the center speaker, surround speakers and
