RCA Surround Output / Subwoofer Connection
Both the AVR505 Series2 and AVR507 Series2 supply 7.1 RCA surround processor outputs. These surround
outputs can be used to connect external amplifiers or the subwoofer. The subwoofer for the system will be
connected to the SUB OUT. If the subwoofer does not contain its own amplifier (powered subwoofer) an
external power amplifier will be needed for the subwoofer. Once the subwoofer has been connected, to setup
the subwoofer see page 25.
If an external speaker amplifier is supplied, each speaker channel can be connected to the appropriate RCA
output.
To use the surround outputs, simply connect an RCA type audio cable between the receiver and the external
amplifier. The diagram below shows a B &K Reference 200.2 Series2 amplifying the front left and right
speakers. This configuration can be performed without any hardware or software modifications.
External Amplifier
Note: All B& K receivers contain software for processing 7.1 channels of surround audio. The AVR505
Series2 can be expanded to 6.1 or 7.1 operation by connecting an external amplifier to the Surround Back
RCA outputs
