Connecting the A-9755/A-9555—Continued
Connecting a Preamp (A-9755 only)
The A-9755 can be used as a power amplifier with a
separate preamp.
In this case, use an analog audio cable to connect the
A-9755’s MAIN IN jacks to the preamp’s output jacks.
Connect the speakers to the A-9755, and connect the
playback components to the preamp.
Notes:
• Do not connect a component that does not have an
output volume control, because the sound will be out-
put at maximum volume and may damage the A-9755
and your speakers.
• To turn on the MAIN IN function, press the [POWER
AMP DIRECT (MAIN IN)] button for 3 seconds
until the indicator lights up (page 17).
Connecting Components
If you connect other Onkyo components to the
A-9755/A-9555 with the appropriate
and audio
cables, you can use the following system functions.
cables are special cables solely for use with Onkyo
products (no
cables are supplied with the
A-9755/A-9555).
Auto Power On
When you turn on the power or start playback on a com-
ponent that’s connected to the A-9755/A-9555, the
A-9755/A-9555 will turn on automatically. And when
you set the A-9755/A-9555 to Standby, all connected
components will go on Standby as well (the
A-9755/A-9555’s POWER switch must be set to ON for
this to work).

the A-9755/A-9555’s remote controller. See page 8 for
more information.
With (Remote Interactive), you can control your
-compatible Onkyo CD player, Tuner, and so on

, you must make an analog audio con-
nection between the A-9755/A-9555 and each
audio component.
Notes:

tion.
• Use only dedicated cables for connections
(no cables are supplied with the

• The A-9755/A-9555 has two jacks. They’re all
the same, so you can use either of them.
• jacks should be connected only to Onkyo compo-
nents. Connecting them to another manufacturer’s
component may cause the A-9755/A-9555 to mal-
function.
• Some components may not support all functions.
See the manuals supplied with your other Onkyo
components for more information.
• When using the A-9755 as a power amplifier (MAIN IN
