If the 1082 is 7.1 compatible, I'm guessing it is similar to other Denons. Obviously you have to hook up the speakers to the rear speaker terminals Other than that you will need to go into the Setup menu on the denon, and there should be a location where you tell the receiver to turn on the Rear speakers. For my setup it is in the Speaker Setup menu. From there you would have to make sure the dB levels are adjusted for that channel. Should be pretty straight forward...
