Preparing Your Receiver
Connecting Surround-Sound Speakers
You can connect a pair of speakers to the receiver for surround-sound
programs. Follow the steps in “Preparing Your Receiver” on Page 7 to
connect the speakers to the
SURROUND SPEAKERS
terminals.
Connecting the Center Speaker
The center speaker gives additional ambience to surround sound. Fol-
low the steps in “Preparing Your Receiver” on Page 7 to connect the cen-
ter speaker to the
CENTER SPEAKER
terminals.
Or, if you prefer to use the amplified speaker as your center speaker,
connect
CENTER PRE OUT
to its line-level input. You can also connect this
jack to the audio input of your TV.
Connecting a Subwoofer Amplifier
Your receiver includes a line-level subwoofer output. Connecting a sub-
woofer to your system dramatically extends bass response for incredible
richness and depth. When you listen to surround-sound programs, a
subwoofer enhances your home theater experience by realistically re-
creating the rumble of an earthquake, the bone-jarring percussion of a
cannon, and more. To use the subwoofer output, connect
SUBWOOFER
PRE OUT
to an amplified subwoofer’s line-level input or to an amplifier to
which you have connected a subwoofer.
RadioShack stores sell a variety of suitable subwoofers and amplifiers.
