analogue pre-amplifier outputs
(aVR600/aV888 only)
All pre-amplifier analogue outputs are buffered, have
a low output impedance and are at line level. They are
able to drive long cables or several inputs in parallel if
required.

Surround Right and Surround Left outputs. Connect
these to the Surround Right and Left power amplifier
inputs.

Surround Back Right and Surround Back Left outputs
(only used in 6.1 and 7.1 channel systems). Connect
these to the Surround Back Right and Surround Back

For 6.1 channel speaker configurations, connect the
single Surround Back power amplifier to the SBL output.

XLR balanced line outputs –
aV888 only
The AV888 processor provides XLR connectors for each
of seven channels, to an XLR-equipped amplifier (e.g.
the Arcam P777). Three XLR subwoofer outputs are
provided in addition.
