Applied configuration and connection
5.1-channel (bi-amp connection of front speaker)
This is a method of connecting separate amplifiers to the tweeter terminals and woofer terminals of bi-amp compatible speakers. This connection enables back EMF (power returned without being output) from the woofer to flow into the tweeter without affecting the sound quality, producing a higher sound quality.
NOTE
When making bi-amp connections, be sure to remove the short-circuiting plate or wire between the speaker’s woofer and tweeter terminals.
5.1-channel + front speaker of second unit
This system enables switching playback between front speakers A and B as desired.
5.1-channel (MAIN ZONE) + 2-channel (ZONE2)
This connection method constructs a 5.1-channel speaker system in the MAIN ZONE and a 2-channel system in ZONE2.

Connecting an external power amplifier
You can use this unit as a pre-amp by connecting an external power amplifier to the PRE OUT connectors. By adding a power amplifier to each channel, the realness of the sound can be further enhanced.
Select the terminal to use and connect the device.
When using just one surround back speaker, connect it to the left channel (L) terminal.
