I was reading up on this receiver today as Costco had them on sale... long story short, I came across some people who run the receiver in 5.1 instead of 7.1 (various reasons)
They wrote that you can bi-amp the front channels and use the unused amps from the 7.1
Meaning you can hook up the highs to the front left and right and hook up the mids/bass to the unused rear surrond (changing the input/output somehow)
Has anyone heard of this or tried it? From what they wrote you would have your 120watt/channel doubled for the front.
