To adjust the volume
Set the volume control of the separate amplifiers to the maximum position and adjust the volume level with the volume control of the receiver.
Notes
•For best results, we recommend using a pair of equivalent amplifiers to boost front and center speaker output. You can, however, connect the center speakers to the CENTER SPEAKER terminals if you only have one additional amplifier.
•Do not use the terminals labeled CENTER SPEAKER or REAR SPEAKERS if you connect two additional amplifiers. Make connections as shown above.
•If you want to turn off the power swap function, set the POWER SWAP selector to the NORMAL position.
