Connecting an Amplifier

(Main Zone for a 5.1 Configuration)

This configuration shows the MAIN ZONE 5.1 channel connections to a multi-channel amplifier. You may use single ended RCA audio cables or the preferred balanced XLR audio connections. The advantage of the XLR balanced connections is that they have a much higher rejection to any radiated noise from AC line cord interference. Also note the connection of the 12 VDC trigger to turn the amplifier on.

In this configuration the PT-7010A is connected to 5 channels of amplification via balanced XLR connections. The sixth output would connect to the input of a powered subwoofer. If using more than one subwoofer, use the pass through output on one subwoofer to route the input signal to the additional subwoofer(s). If you choose to connect the remaining two connections (LEFT and RIGHT SURROUND BACK) you will need a 7 channel amplifier like the one shown here - the Sherbourn 7/2100A - and you must enable the channels through the SPEAKER SIZE menu of the PT- 7010A remote control.
