Surround and surround back speakers should be
positioned 60 cm to 90 cm higher than your ears and titled
slight downward. Make sure the speakers don’t face each
other. For DVD-Audio, the speakers should be more directly
behind the listener than for home theater playback.
Try not to place the surround speakers farther away from
the listening position than the front and center speakers.
Doing so can weaken the surround sound effect.
Place the left and right front height speakers at least one
meter directly above the left and right front speakers.
If you’re going to place speakers around your CRT TV, use
shielded speakers or place the speakers at a sufficient
distance from your CRT TV.
The subwoofer can be placed on the floor. Ideally, the other
speakers should be at about ear-level when you’re listening
to them. Putting the speakers on the floor (except the
subwoofer), or mounting them very high on a wall is not
recommended.
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 Auto MCACC
(speaker environment setting) procedure.
See Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC)
on page 23.
CAUTION
Make sure that all speakers are securely installed. This not
only improves sound quality, but also reduces the risk of
damage or injury resulting from speakers being knocked
over or falling in the event of external shocks such as
earthquakes.
Connecting the speakers
The receiver will work with just two stereo speakers (the front
speakers in the diagram) but using at least three speakers is
recommended, and a complete setup is best for surround
sound.
Make sure you connect the speaker on the right to the right (R)
terminal and the speaker on the left to the left (L) terminal.
Also make sure the positive and negative (+/) terminals on
the receiver match those on the speakers.
You can use speakers with a normal impedance between 6 Ω
and 16 Ω.
Be sure to complete all connections before connecting this unit
to the AC power source.
Bare wire connections
1
Twist exposed wire strands together.
2
Loosen terminal and insert exposed wire.
3
Tighten terminal.
Connect the wires to the B-Speakers terminals of the VSX-1022
as shown below:
1
Twist exposed wire strands together.
2
Push open the tabs and insert exposed wire.
3
Release the tabs.
CAUTION
These speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS LIVE voltage.
To prevent the risk of electric shock when connecting or
disconnecting the speaker cables, disconnect the power
cord before touching any uninsulated parts.
Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is twisted together
and inserted fully into the speaker terminal. If any of the
bare speaker wire touches the back panel it may cause the
power to cut off as a safety measure.
Connect the surround back or front height
speakers (In case of VSX-1022)
The Speaker System setting must be set if the above
connections are performed. Select Surr.Back if the surround
back speaker is connected and Height if the front height
speaker is connected (If neither the surround back speaker
nor the front height speaker is connected, either setting will
suffice) (see The Speaker System setting (VSX-1022 only)
on
page 49).
When using only one surround back speaker, connect it to
the SURROUND BACK L (Single) terminals.
Connect the surround back or front height
speakers (In case of VSX-822)
Connect the PRE OUT SURR BACK/FRONT HEIGHT outputs
of the unit and additional amplifier to add a surround back or
front height speaker.
The Pre Out setting must be set if the above connections are
performed. Select Surr.Back if the surround back speaker is
connected and Height if the front height speaker is
connected (If neither the surround back speaker nor the front
height speaker is connected, either setting will suffice) (see
The Pre Out Setting (VSX-822 only)
on page 50).
You can use the additional amplifier on the surround back
channel pre-outs for a single speaker as well. In this case
plug the amplifier into the left (L (Single)) terminal only.
