What's up with that? It seriously is something I see all the time these days and I don't really get it.
Why do so many current AV receivers advertise a 7.1 or 5.1 yet they have a long string of binding posts on the back that don't match up to the number of channels of amplification that they actually are able to provide?
Example: Yamaha RX-V683

Someone please help me understand the real world purpose of these extra connections.
