Speaker Outputs - B&K AVR101 Series Owner's Manual

SPEAKER OUTPUTS

Five-way binding posts are provided, one pair for each channel. They are designed to accept a banana-type plug
or spade lug connector (shown below) and are color coded for easy identification. The red (+) post should always
be connected to the speaker's red (+) jack. The black (-) post should always be connected to the speaker's black
(-) jack.
The amplifier section of the receiver will produce 105 watts / channel into 8 ohms. See SPECIFICATIONS for
more information.

Subwoofer Output - your receiver does not include a power amplifier for a subwoofer speaker. Most subwoofers
contain their own internal amplifier, so none is needed in the receiver. Connect an RCA cable from one of the
receiver's two SUB outputs (part of the surround outputs). You may connect a second subwoofer to the other SUB
output if desired. If your subwoofer does not contain its own amplifier you will need to purchase an external B&K or
other power amplifier. Connect the receiver's SUB output to the audio input of the external amplifier. Connect the
external amplifier's speaker output to your subwoofer.
