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.

• 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 64), signals will only be output from the FRONT PRE
OUT jacks.

• Each PRE OUT jack outputs the same channel signal as the

corresponding speaker terminals. However, when both surround
back and presence speakers are setup in this unit, the signals
output from SURROUND BACK/PRESENCE PRE OUT jacks
may not correspond to the correct speakers.

• Adjust the volume level of the subwoofer with the control on

the subwoofer. It is also possible to adjust the volume level by
using the remote control (see “Manually adjusting speaker
levels” on page 51).

• Some signals may not be output from the SUBWOOFER PRE

OUT jack depending on the SPEAKER SET (see page 55) and
LFE/BASS OUT (see page 56) settings.
