    Surround back speakers or bi-amplified front speakers cannot be used while the Zone B function is enabled.

    Caution

    • Before making bi-amp connections, remove any brackets or cables that connect a woofer with a tweeter. Refer to the instruction manual of the speakers for details. If you are not making bi-amp connections, make sure that the brackets or cables are connected before connecting the speaker cables.

    ■ Connecting speaker cablesSpeaker cables have two wires. One is for connecting the negative (-) terminal of the unit and the speaker, and the other is for the positive (+) terminal. If the wires are colored to prevent confusion, connect the black wire to the negative and the other wire to the positive terminal.

    a Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8”) of insulation from the ends of the speaker cable and twist the bare wires of the cable firmly together.

    b Loosen the speaker terminal.

    c Insert the bare wires of the cable into the gap on the side (upper right or bottom left) of the terminal.

    d Tighten the terminal.

    b Insert a banana plug into the end of the terminal.

    ■ Connecting the subwoofer (with built-in amplifier)

    Use an audio pin cable to connect the subwoofer.

    Connecting front speakers that support bi-amp connections(RX-V577 only)

    When using front speakers that support bi-amp connections, connect them to the FRONT jacks and SURROUND BACK/BI-AMP/ZONE B jacks.

    To enable the bi-amp function, set “Power Amp Assign” (p.79) in the “Setup” menu to “BI-AMP” after connecting the power cable to an AC wall outlet.

    • Surround back speakers or Zone B speakers cannot be used during bi-amp connections.

    • The FRONT jacks and SURROUND BACK/BI-AMP/ZONE B jacks output the same signals.

    Connect a TV to the unit so that video input to the unit can be output to the TV. You can also enjoy playback of TV audio on the unit.

    To maximize the performance of the unit, we recommend connecting a TV with an HDMI cable.

    ■ HDMI connectionConnect the TV to the unit with an HDMI cable and a digital optical cable.

    • You do not make a digital optical cable connection between the TV and the unit in the following cases:

    – If your TV supports Audio Return Channel (ARC)

    – If you will receive TV broadcasts only from the set-top box

    • If you connect a TV that supports HDMI Control to the unit with an HDMI cable, you can control the unit’s power and volume with the TV’s remote control.

    To use HDMI Control and ARC, you need to configure the HDMI settings on the unit. For details on the settings, see “Information on HDMI” (p.111).

    You can enjoy Internet radio or music files stored on media servers, such as PCs and Network Attached Storage (NAS), on the unit.

    (RX-V577 only)

    You can also connect the unit to a network wirelessly. For details, see "Connecting to a network wirelessly (RX-V577 only)" (p.28).
