Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Meridian - Systems Oppo Connections to IA45 Card

Hello

I have purchased a new 105 player and I have a question about hooking up the player using the RCA output connections to my Meridian 861v4 (IA45 Card).



I understand the front right & left and the sub and centre but I don't know what to connect up either the (SR & SL) or (SBR & SBL) to the right rear and left rear connections of the IA45 card.



I posed this question to Oppo and got the response below:

I spoke to Marc Koval and he said to hook up the SBR & SBL to the Right Rear and Left Rear of the IA45 Card. This makes the most sense to me!

I don�t know which method is correct. I hooked it up according to what Oppo said (I asked them twice on the phone to be sure).

I just don�t get much information out of my rear speakers now but my side surrounds seem overwhelmed.

I had a Pioneer Elite player before with only 5.1 RCA outputs connected to the IA45 and it worked perfectly for many years.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
John
