Another Bi-Wire question, Denon AVR-1803

Well actually I got an AVR-883, but it appears to be the exact same receiver. Now my question is can I use the "Surround Back/Zone 2" to bi-wire my front speakers? I have a pair of Mission M73 speakers that are capable of being run in bi-wire mode. However this receiver does not appear to have a selection for A/B as I thought it did prior to purhcasing. So can I do this or not? And if it is possible will it improve my sound because it is not a A B assigned front channel.

Thanks in advance for your help.

It appears the zone 2 speakers output is in mono, "same" signal is outputed from these terminals, also the terminals are labeled A, B not L, R. as per the on-line manual in the discontinued product archives.

Merry Christmas

You can bi-wire your speakers by using internal bi-wire or shotgun biwire. There would be one + and one - at each amp terminal, and 2 + and 2 - at the speaker end.

Some people are doing that, but can the effects be(concert, live, etc) turned off? They add distortion.
