Yes, both sets of surround speakers on the AVR5700 (and AVR3300) use the same amplifiers. You select one or the other - not both. The idea is to be able to connect a pair of dipolar/bipolar speakers for normal surround (Pro Logic, Dolby Digital and DTS movies), and a standard monopolar pair for listening to music surround (presumably DVD-Audio). Personally, I haven't had problems with using all five identical speakers all around my home theater, though the ability to localize the rear speakers independently does depend much more on the recording than it would if I had bipolar or dipolar rear speakers. My setup sounds great for DTS CD though. I'm curious to see how well dealers will do in selling customers TWO pairs of surround speakers with the top Denons when it's hard enough to convince a lot of people that they need five or six speakers instead of only two.
