PRE AMP mode
You can connect all speakers to an external power amplifier and use
this unit as a preamplifier.
Using this unit as a preamplifier, you can perform up to 11.2-channel
playback.
When the PRE AMP mode is used, the built-in power amplifier
operation of this unit is stopped, and interference to the preamplifier
from the power amplifier can be reduced.
To use this unit as a preamplifier, select “Amp Assign” and set
“Assign Mode” to “PRE AMP” using steps 3 and 4 of “Set up “Amp
Assign”” (vpage63).
• When the PRE AMP mode is used, the MAIN ZONE audio is not
output from the speaker terminals of this unit.
To use the speakers for multizone (ZONE2/ZONE3) in the PRE AMP
mode, set “Amp Assign” – “Assign Sp.” to “ZONE2/3” (vpage95).
This setting will output the ZONE2 audio from the surround back
speaker terminals and ZONE3 audio from the front wide speaker
terminals.
• For connecting power amplifier and speaker systems, refer to the
instruction manual supplied with the power amplifier to be used.
