Connecting Additional Amplifiers

This receiver has more than sufficient power for any home use, but it is possible to add additional amplifiers to every channel of your system. 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.

*The arrows indicate the direction of the signal.

Powered subwoofer

Front channel amplifier

Surround channel amplifier

Surround back channel amplifier

Center channel amplifier (mono)

Memo:

•You can use the additional amplifier on the surround back channels for a single speaker as well. In this case plug the amplifier into the L (SINGLE) terminal only.

•The sound from the surround back terminals will depend on how you have set up the SURRBACK SYSTEM (see page 37).
