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.
