Connecting an external amplifier

CONNECTIONS

Connecting an external amplifier

This unit has more than enough power for any home use. However, if you want to add more power to the speaker output or if you want to use another amplifier, connect an external amplifier to the PRE OUT jacks.

CAUTION

Do not connect this unit or other components to the AC power supply until all connections between components are complete.

Notes

When you make connections to the PRE OUT jacks, do not make connections to the SPEAKERS terminals.

Set the volume level of the external amplifiers connected to the PRE OUT jacks to the maximum.

The signals output at the FRONT PRE OUT and CENTER PRE OUT jacks are affected by the TONE CONTROL settings (see page 39).

If SPEAKERS A is turned off (see page 38), signals are output only at the FRONT PRE OUT jacks.

Each PRE OUT jack outputs the same channel signals as the corresponding SPEAKERS terminals.

Adjust the volume level of the subwoofer with the control on the subwoofer. It is also possible to adjust the volume level with the supplied remote control (see page 42).

Some signals may not be output at the SUBWOOFER PRE OUT jack depending on the settings for “SPEAKER SET” (see page 86) and “LFE/BASS OUT” (see page 88).
