Q: Does this receiver have an A/B switch?
A: It does, but you have to take a few steps. If you hook up all 7 speakers, the speaker button on the front of the cabinet will only toggle between SPKRA and SPKROFF. I have two speakers in my back yard and need to have them off when no one is out there. Do this. Disconnect your B speakers (the speaker jack reads BiAmp/B Front High, etc. use the calibration microphone to calibrate in the main room and it will set up the system as 5.1 or 5.2. Then connect the B speakers. Now, when you push the speaker button in the front if the cabinet, it will toggle between A, B, AB, and speaker off. Then you need to select the surround sound Mode that best suits the space. I only play music when using the B speakers, so it sounds great.
Q: Can I plug in only one subwoofer and leave the other one empty?
A: Yes, that's how mines setup

A: Technically there is no need for the sub. You may want to consider one down the road as it significantly improves the sound. For just music, depending on what you have in the walls, it may sound fine. However for home theatre, the sub reall makes a difference.
A: Much better volume and overall sound than the Onkyo . I too purchased Onkyo and returned it for the Sony.
