CONNECTIONS

Connecting external power amplifiers

If you want to increase the power output to the speakers,
or want to use another power amplifier, connect an
external amplifier to the pre out jacks.

• When RCA pin plugs are connected to the pre out jacks for

output to an external amplifier, it is not necessary to use the
corresponding SPEAKERS terminals. Set the volume of the
amplifier connected to this unit to the maximum.

• The signal output through the FRONT OUT, CENTER OUT

and SUBWOOFER jacks is affected by the TONE CONTROL
settings.

• Signals will only be output from the FRONT OUT jacks if

SPEAKERS B is set to “ZONE B” (see page 77) and
SPEAKERS A is turned off (see page 77).

Connect one or two subwoofer(s) with built-in amplifier,

Subwoofer System, to these jacks.

• Adjust the volume level of the subwoofer with the control on

the subwoofer. It is also possible to adjust the volume level
using this unit’s remote control (see page 69).

• Some signals may not be output from the SUBWOOFER jack

depending on the Speaker Set (see page 67) and LFE Level (see
page 63) settings.

Connecting external preamplifiers

If you want to input signals from another preamplifier,
connect the external preamplifier to the FRONT IN/
CENTER IN jacks.
