Preparing Your Receiver
Connecting Surround-Sound Speakers
You can connect a pair of speakers to the receiver for surround-sound programs. Follow the steps in “Connecting the Front Speakers” to con- nect the speakers to the SURROUND SPEAKERS terminals.
Connecting the Center Speaker
The center speaker gives additional ambience to surround sound. Fol- low the steps in “Connecting the Front Speakers” to connect the center speaker to the CENTER SPEAKER terminals.
Or, if you are intending to use the amplified speaker as your center speaker, connect CENTER PRE OUT to its line-level input. You can also con- nect this jack to the audio input of your TV.
Connecting a Subwoofer Amplifier
Your receiver includes a line-level subwoofer output. Connecting a sub- woofer to your system dramatically extends bass response for incredible richness and depth. When you listen to surround-sound programs, a subwoofer enhances your home theater experience by realistically re- creating the rumble of an earthquake, the bone-jarring percussion of a cannon, and more. To use the subwoofer output, simply connect SUB- WOOFER PRE OUT to an amplified subwoofer’s line-level input or to an amplifier to which you have connected a subwoofer.
RadioShack stores sell a variety of suitable subwoofers and amplifiers.
