• You can use this unit as a pre-amp by connecting an external power amplifier to the PRE OUT connectors. Adding an

external power amplifier with

a higher power output rating than this unit may be beneficial with loudspeakers that have lower efficiency and/or

lower impedances, or to reach

higher volume levels.
