-   I have a Yamaha HTR-6030 and want to use a second set of speakers in another room for Radio and CD Listening. I've connected the one set of speakers to A output and the second set to the B output. There appears to be no menu selection to control the A output, and I can't get any sound from the speakers on the B outputs at all. I can't find any menu item to turn one A off and B on for example. I find the manual not very helpful.
I have the main (TV) Front speakers connected to the A output pins, yet any adjustments I make appear on the menu as B outputs.
(I'm just using it for CD and Radio now - haven't ventured to the TV yet!)-   Feelingdumb

-   I am replacing my 5.1 receiver with a 7.1. Is it OK to connect only 5 speakers?-   carlrob

-   I have a Sony STRDG 710 6.1 receiver. No matter what I do I cannot get A & B speakers to play simultaneously, even with surround sound functions turned off. This troubleshooting information is not in the manual. What am I doing wrong? Do you have any suggestions?
-   When I hook up the surround speakers AND a set of "B" speakers we can hear the surround rears EVEN WITH only "B" selected?? Does anyone know why?? I'm guessing there is a selection/setting within the amp? But don't have a manual with it. Any help is appreciated.-   hitman44

Any home theater receiver allows you to connect a minimum of five speakers, including a front left and right pair, a center channel speaker, and a surround pair. You can always add a subwoofer if desired. Some advanced receivers allow you to connect an additional one or two "back surround" speaker(s) for use with 6.1-channel sources such as DTS-ES or Dolby Digital EX-encoded DVDs. For stereo listening, you can connect an "A" pair for the room where the stereo is located, and a "B" pair for another room (as long as your receiver has two sets of main speaker outputs). Hooking up even more pairs of stereo speakers is possible, but it requires an external speaker selector that both provides more speaker outputs and protects the receiver against low impedance loads. Tip: Many receivers will not let you run the "B" and surround speaker outputs simultaneously.

some have suggested attaching 100 .02ohm speakers. makes it fun yo
My 3802 7.1: is running 9 speakers , in the speaker settings i select "A+B" default is "A" , so if your looking for rear surround it works for me . I've always had Denon as my main unit so no comment on other companies .
Tip: If your looking for a new HDMI killer surround reciever "Onkyo" is setting the bar pretty high so watch out onkyousa.com, bring your credit card (lol)
If your looking for an owners manual www.brouchureworld.com this guy has everything you can think of and more .
Happy Listening

I own a SA HE200, it has "overload" protection. If you drive it too loud into too low of a speaker impedence, it will display "overload " and switch it's speaker connections off. Turn it off, then it on & it will reset. panasonic recomends 6 ohms, with a speaker mode for less than 6 ohms, a "low impedence mode" it has. I have speakers conneted to all 6 channels, the fronts, huge 4 ohms, center 8 ohms, rear left & right 5 ohms & 4 ohmsper channel connected in paralel = to 3 ohms,and rear center 4 ohms. This receiver connected to all of these speakers works extremely well, with no problems of any kind. It has not been needed to use the low impedence function, and you can turn it up loud enough to cause ear damage without it distorting the sound, long before ever reaching "overload", which I have only had happen 2 times. The statement was a question, so this is experience input not a solution.

I have a similar problem where the receiver turns off after about 3 minutes of turning it on. It started out infrequently, but now I can't use it at all. I am trying to find a service center to fix it. I live in Milwaukee, WI and the only place that carried Arcam shut down. So now the search is on.
