Connecting additional amplifiers

This receiver has more than enough power for any home
use, but it’s possible to add additional amplifiers to every
channel of your system using the pre-outs. Make the
connections shown below to add amplifiers to power
your speakers.

Important

• Before making or changing the connections, switch

off the power and disconnect the power cord from the
AC outlet.

• You can use the additional amplifier on the surround

back channel pre-outs for a single speaker as well. In
this case plug the amplifier into the left (

L (Single)

)

terminal only.

• The sound from the surround back terminals will

depend on how you have configured the

Surround

back speaker setting

on page 38.

• To hear sound only from the pre-outs, switch the

speaker system to

OFF

, or simply disconnect any

speakers that are connected directly to the receiver.

• If you’re not using a subwoofer, change the front

speaker setting (see

Speaker Setting

on page 44) to

large.

Multi-room listening

VSX-2014i-G model only

When used together with an optional IR receiver, this
receiver can power two independent systems in separate
rooms. Different sources can be playing in both rooms at
the same time or, depending on your needs, the same
source can also be used. The main and sub rooms have
independent power (the main room power can be off
while the sub room is on) and the sub room can be
controlled by this unit's remote control. You may need to
specify your volume setting and IR receiver type in

Multi

Room Setup

on page 67.

Making multi-room connections

It is possible to make these connections if you have a
separate amplifier, TV, speakers, and an IR receiver for
your sub room.

1

Connect the IR receiver sensor to the MULTI-

ROOM & SOURCE IR IN jack on the rear of this
receiver.

2

Connect a separate amplifier to the MULTI-

ROOM & SOURCE OUT jacks and a TV monitor to the
MULTI-ROOM & SOURCE MONITOR OUT jacks, both
on the rear of this receiver.

You should have a pair of speakers attached to the sub
room amplifier as shown in the illustration below.

Note

• Even if you don’t have an IR receiver, you can make

multi-room connections and use the front panel to
control the sub room.
