Connection Example 2: Stereo Complete Bi-amp Connection
q
The two amplifiers are connected by F.C.B.S. for synchronized use. For F.C.B.S. connection, connect with commercially available
monaural
monaural miniplugs or stereo
stereo miniplugs as described in
F.C.B.S.
(page. 26).
w
Set the ID numbers as explained in
HOW TO SET ID NUMBERS
(page. 27). When the ID1 amplifier is operated, the ID 2
amplifier will operate in sync.
e
Connect the analog output of the CD player etc. to the L ch input jacks of both pre-amps.
As both pre-amps operate as monaural pre-amps in BI-AMP mode, do not use the R channel of the input jacks on these units.

About Complete Bi-Amp
Proposed by Marantz, the complete bi-amp connection is an advanced technique that enhances sound quality. The low and mid/high
amplifiers are separated and independent of the preamplifier, therefore interference between low and mid/high sounds is reduced
to a minimum. As a result, a wide sound environment can be reproduced.
Note:
Speaker systems connected using complete bi-amp connections must support bi-amp connections. Before connecting your
speakers, check in the instruction manual that came with the speakers or contact the manufacturer to confirm whether they
support bi-amp connection.
