PRE OUT connections
This receiver has additional preout jacks. These can be used for various
purposes, but will need to be connected to an external power amplifier as
shown in the example below.
• Connecting a speaker cord directly to a PRE OUT jack will not
produce any sound from the speaker.
• To use the PRE OUT jacks, press only the SPEAKERS A key to the
on position.

panel of the receiver, connect speakers with matching impedance
ratings. Using speakers with a rated impedance other than that indi-
cated on the rear panel of the receiver could result in malfunctions or
damage to the speakers or receiver.
