• You can use the additional amplifier on the surround
back channel pre-outs for a single speaker as well. In
this case plug the amplifier into the left (L (Single))
terminal only.
Connecting an external stereo pre-amplifier
It's possible to use a separate stereo pre-amp with this
receiver if necessary. You might want to do this if you
need to connect more sources than this receiver can
accommodate, or if you prefer to use a specific pre-amp
for sound quality reasons. You can connect sources to
either this receiver or to the external pre-amp (giving you
a greater number of input possibilities).
Note that with sources connected this receiver, any
signal sent to the two front channels will be sent to the
pre-amplifier before being heard through the front
speakers in your system.
1
Remove the U-shaped connectors that connect
the FRONT PRE OUT jacks to the POWER AMP IN
jacks.
2
Use a stereo RCA audio cable to connect the
FRONT PRE OUT jacks of this receiver to a stereo
input on the pre-amp.
For example, connect to the CD or tape inputs on the rear
of the pre-amp. You'll have to select that source if you
want to hear the stereo signal from this receiver.
3
Use a stereo RCA audio cable to connect the
stereo pre-out jacks of the pre-amp to the POWER
AMP IN jack of this receiver.
This will allow you to hear the stereo source from the
external pre-amp through this receiver. For stereo
sources connected directly to the external pre-amp, this
receiver acts as a standard power amplifier. For digital
sources connected to this receiver, the receiver acts as a
digital decoder/digital-to-analog converter and as a
power amplifier.

Multi-room setup
When used together with an optional IR receiver, this
receiver can power two independent systems in separate
rooms. Different sources can be playing in both rooms at
the same time or, depending on your needs, the same
source can also be used. The main and sub rooms have
independent power (the main room power can be off
while the sub room is on) and the sub room can be
controlled by this unit's remote control. You may need to
specify your volume setting and IR receiver type in Multi-
Room Setting on page 95.
Making multi-room connections
It is possible to make these connections if you have a
separate amplifier, speakers, TV and an IR receiver (such
as the Pioneer MR-100) for your sub room.
1
Connect the IR receiver sensor to the green
MULTI-ROOM & SOURCE REMOTE IN jack on the rear
of this receiver.
2
Connect a separate amplifier and TV monitor to
the MULTI-ROOM & SOURCE OUT jacks on the rear of
this receiver.
You should have a pair of speakers attached to the sub
room amplifier as shown in the illustration below.

Note
• It is not possible to hear the digital output of a
component in the sub room. However, you can
connect the analog outputs of your digital
component into the receiver's (analog) input
terminals to hear the component in the sub room.
• You can't use sound controls (such as the tone
controls or Midnight listening) or any surround
modes in the sub room. You can, however, use the
features available with your sub room amplifier.
