Yamaha RX-V1500 owner manual Connecting to an external amplifier, Notes, 1FRONT PRE OUT jacks

CONNECTIONS

■Connecting to an external amplifier

If you want to increase the power output to the speakers, or want to use another amplifier, connect an external amplifier to the PRE OUT jacks as follows.

Notes

•When audio pin plugs are connected to the PRE OUT jacks for output to an external amplifier, it is not necessary to use the corresponding SPEAKERS terminals. Set the volume of the external amplifier connected to this unit to the maximum.

•The signal output through the FRONT PRE OUT and CENTER PRE OUT jacks are affected by the TONE CONTROL settings.

•If SPEAKERS A is turned off and SP B is set to ZONE B (see page 67), signals will only be output from the FRONT PRE OUT jacks.
