        7. Speaker Configurations

        Pioneer VSX-532's and Yamaha RX-A3010's amplifiers can be assigned for different speaker configurations.

        • Configurations: Available configurations are:
        • Pioneer VSX-532: 5.1 with internal amplifier.
        • Yamaha RX-A3010: 5.2, 7.2 with internal amplifier.
        • Bi-Amp: Yamaha RX-A3010 is able to bi-amp up to 2 main channels simultaneously. During bi-amplification two amplifiers are used for one speaker. One amplifier powers the midrange and tweeter section of the speaker and another amplifier powers the low frequency woofers. Each amplifier is less loaded and performs better. In order to use this feature speakers must have 2 pairs of connectors.
