USING
PREAMP
OUT AND
POWER AMP
IN JACKS
If the connections
between
the
PREAMP
OUT
and
POWER
AMP
IN
jacks
are
removed
(see
Fig. 22),
it is possible
to use
the
preamplifier
section and the power amplifier section independ-
ently. However,
for normal use always keep these
connections in place since once you remove them,
no
sound
will
be heard
through
the
speakers.
Always
set
the
POWER
switch
to OFF
when
removing or replacing these connections.

built power amplifier to the PREAMP
OUT jacks

the sound with the power amplifier
section of the stereo receiver.

COMPOSING A MULTI-AMPLIFIER SYSTEM
As shown in Fig. 25, you can compose your own
multiamplifier system if you connect an optional
stereo
power
amplifier
and
crossover
network.
A
multi-amplifier
system
splits up
the
audible
frequency
range into different frequency
bands.
Each
of these
bands
is then
amplified
by the
amplifiers and so this has the advantage of reducing
intermodulation distortion.
