Important
• SPEAKERS SUBWOOFER terminals are Pioneer’s passive subwoofer S-SLW500
connection terminals. If using another model of subwoofer, be sure to use a model with
built-in amp and connect to the PREOUT SUBWOOFER terminal.
• Please connect either passive or powered subwoofers, as connecting both makes it
impossible to achieve the correct sound effect.
