ANALOGUE PREAMPLIFIER OUTPUTS
All these analogue outputs are buffered, have a low output impedance and are at line level.They are able to drive long cables or several inputs
in parallel if required.

OUTPUTS

dl LEFT, dm RIGHT, dn CENTRE. Connect these to the equivalent front channel inputs of your power amplifier.
do SUB 1. Main subwoofer output. Connect this to the input of your active subwoofer, if you have one.
dpSUB 2, dq SUB 3. Subwoofer auxiliary outputs 2 and 3. These
are equivalent to do and allow the use of multiple subwoofers. If you are using more than one subwoofer, please set the number used on the subwoofer setting page. Refer to ‘Basic and Advanced Set up’, ‘Subwoofer Settings’.
dr L SURR. Surround left output. Connect this output to the surround left power amplifier input.
ds R SURR. Surround right output. Connect this output to the surround right power amplifier input.
dt LS BACK, ek RS BACK Surround back left and right outputs (only used in 7.1 channel systems). Connect these outputs to the inputs of your LS back and RS back amplifiers.
ZONE 2 CONNECTIONS
The AV8 allows independent routing and control of analogue audio and composite video to a separate set of equipment, typically used for a second living space, e.g., bedroom or lounge.
Zone 2 only outputs a signal from the analogue audio and composite video inputs. The analogue inputs are required because there is no
As the AV8 does not convert video formats a composite signal must also be connected from the source.
For this reason we recommend that source devices that have a digital connection are also connected to the analogue inputs. High quality YUV/RGB and

IMPORTANT NOTES
The AV8 has no video format conversion between component, RGB,
Wherever possible connect multiple video outputs from your video sources. This enables use of the higher quality video connection for the main system and the corresponding
For any video source to be viewed in zone 2 you must have a composite video connection between the source and the AV8.
