Connecting the Amplifier—Continued
The FRONT L/R and SURR BACK L/R outputs can be used with front speakers and surround back speakers respec-
tively, or bi-amped to provide separate tweeter and woofer feeds for a pair of front speakers that support bi-amping,
providing improved bass and treble performance.
Notes:
Please make sure that your AV controller supports bi-amping.
When bi-amping is used, the amplifier is able to feed up to 7-channel speakers in the main room.
When bi-amping is used, surround back speakers cannot be used.
For bi-amping, the FRONT L/R outputs feed the front speakers’ woofer terminals. And the SURR BACK L/R outputs
feed the front speakers’ tweeter terminals.
Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections shown below, you must turn on the AV controller and configure
it to enable bi-amping. For more details, see the instruction manual of the connected component.
You can also use unbalanced (RCA) connections for bi-amping.
Important:
When making the bi-amping connections, be sure to remove the jumper bars that link the speakers’ tweeter
(high) and woofer (low) terminals.
Bi-amping can only be used with speakers that support bi-amping. Refer to your speaker manual.
