enhanced250 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Im using 5 speaker setup w a 7.1 receiver and naturally have the option to use the rears as..."surround back" or "surrounds". Which one should I be using and does it matter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigCliff Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Most manuals will tell you the proper set up for your receiver. For my Harman Kardon it says to leave the rear surrounds empty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacksonbart Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 5.1 would leave the back surround speakers off, as you should Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Definitely use them as surrounds, not back surrounds. The processing is different. And remember as Mr. Garrison of South Park says "there are no stupid questions, only stupid people." So you're safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
