Caution
• Make sure you use a parallel (not series,
which are fairly uncommon) connection
when bi-wiring your speakers.
• Don't connect different speakers from the
same terminal in this way.
Connecting additional
amplifiers
This receiver has more than enough power for
any home use, but it’s possible to add
additional amplifiers to every channel of your
system using the pre-outs. Make the
connections shown below to add amplifiers to
power your speakers.

• Before making or changing the
connections, switch off the power and
disconnect the power cord from the AC
outlet.
Using this receiver with a
Pioneer plasma display
If you have a Pioneer plasma display
2
, you can
use an SR+ cable to connect it to this unit and
take advantage of various convenient features,
such as automatic video input switching of the
plasma display when the input is changed.
Note
1• You can use the additional amplifier on the surround back channel pre-outs for a single speaker as well. In this case plug
the amplifier into the left (
L (Single)
) terminal only.
• The sound you hear from the surround back terminals depends on the
Surround back speaker setting
on page 43.
• To hear sound only from the pre-outs, simply disconnect any speakers that are connected directly to the receiver.
• If you’re not using a subwoofer, change the front speaker setting (see
Speaker setting
on page 48) to large.
