Setting up the system

KR-V9090/8090 (En/T)

PRE OUT connections

This receiver has additional preout jacks. These can be used for various purposes, but will need to be connected to an external power

amplifier as shown in the example below. Connecting a speaker cord directly to a PRE OUT jack will not produce any sound from the speaker.

Be sure to set one of the SPEAKERS keys (either A or B) to the ON position when using the PRE OUT jacks.

Operating distance

This remote control has two IR emitters: one to send commands in a straight line over long distances, allowing you to control the receiver and your other components from farther away; and one for wide dispersion of commands in a closer proximity, for near- field operation even when the remote control is not pointed directly at the respective component.
