CONNECTING YOUR JBL PERFORMANCE SERIES SYSTEM

GENERAL INFORMATION

A JBL Performance Series system installation incorporates one preamp/ processor (AV1 or AV2), one power amplifier (AVA7) – in addition to the amplifier(s) used to power one or more subwoofers – and one JBL BassQ processor. If your speaker complement includes the Performance Series PS1400 powered subwoofer (or other powered subwoofer), you may use the amplifier included in each subwoofer. If you are using a passive subwoofer, you will need to supply a subwoofer amplifier. All seven channels on the AVA7 are to be used for driving the left, center and right, and both side and both rear speakers.
