CONNECTIONS
Connecting external power amplifiers
If you want to increase the power output to the speakers,
or want to use another power amplifier, connect an
external amplifier to the pre out jacks.
Notes
• When RCA 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
amplifier connected to this unit to the maximum.
• The signal output through the FRONT OUT, CENTER OUT
and SUBWOOFER jacks is affected by the TONE CONTROL
settings.
• Signals will only be output from the FRONT OUT jacks if
SPEAKERS B is set to "ZONE B" (see page 77) and
SPEAKERS A is turned off (see page 77).
