Connection Example 4: Stereo Complete Bi-amp Connection
1. Connect 2 Marantz SC-11S1 by F.C.B.S. for synchronized control.
For F.C.B.S. connection, connect with commercially available cables with monaural monaural miniplugs or stereo stereo
miniplugs as described in F.C.B.S. (pg. 26) in the SC-11S1 instruction manual.
2. Refer to the SC-11S1 instruction manual (pg. 27) and set the SC-11S1 ID numbers.
3. 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 for the SC-11S1.

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 separate 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 that can be connected using complete bi-amp must support bi-amp connections. Before connecting your
speaker system, check the speaker system instruction manual, or contact the speaker manufacturer to check whether the
speakers support bi-amp connections.
