CONNECTIONS

7Connection Example 2: Stereo Complete Bi-amp Connection

qThe two amplifiers are connected by F.C.B.S. for synchronized use. For F.C.B.S. connection, connect with commercially available monaural ⇔ monaural miniplugs or stereo ⇔ stereo miniplugs as described in F.C.B.S. (page. 26).

wSet the ID numbers as explained in HOW TO SET ID NUMBERS (page. 27). When the ID1 amplifier is operated, the ID 2 amplifier will operate in sync.

eConnect the analog output of the CD player etc. to the L ch input jacks of both pre-amps.

As both pre-amps operate as monaural pre-amps in BI-AMP mode, do not use the R channel of the input jacks on these units.

¶About Complete Bi-Amp

Proposed by Marantz, the complete bi-amp connection is an advanced technique that enhances sound quality.The low and mid/high amplifiers are separated and independent of the preamplifier, therefore interference between low and mid/high sounds is reduced to a minimum. As a result, a wide sound environment can be reproduced.

Note:

Speaker systems connected using complete bi-amp connections must support bi-amp connections. Before connecting your speakers, check in the instruction manual that came with the speakers or contact the manufacturer to confirm whether they support bi-amp connection.
