5125. Use the two channel amplifier for the surround back channels. For example, if your two channel amplifier is the Parasound Model 275 rated at 75 watts/ channel, use the 275 for the surround back channels and your 5125 for the other five channels. - Page 8 Some components, including most Parasound Surround Controllers, may use a 3.5mm mini jack for trigger output, so we have also included a 3.5mm plug - 2.5mm adapter for your convenience.

Note: The Model 5125 trigger circuit draws a negligible 15 mA from the controller. The total load on your controller’s trigger output(s) is the sum of the trigger current drawn by each of the com- ponents you’ve looped together.
