does using wireless speakers (surround back) disable that input on the receiver? or can I still hook up another speaker and make it 9.2? null

Sorry but No. When you add wireless speakers, they take the place of wired counterpart. The AN1000 is a 7.2 or a 5.2.2 and you cannot get past that with the AN1000. Step up Sony models allow for more channels. Example: The AZ1000ES allows you to add an extra amp and add 2 more channels. The processor in the AZ1000 can support 9.2, but the AN1000 can only support 7.2. For full support of 9.2 you need to jump up to the AZ3000 or higher.

It can only decode 7 channels.  So, 2 channels will either be disabled or duplicated.

Answer

Check Sony site for web manual. It lists and illustrates what speaker configs that can be used with wireless and wired. 9.2 not one of them.  This is 7.2 model.
