The bi-amp mode
is
engaged by setting the operating mode
switch on the rear panel to "BI-AMP".ln the bi-amp mode, the
signals inputto the Lchannel are split
by
the input selector and
sent to the left and right volume amplifiers, and are then output
to the PRE OUT terminals. The figures below show example
displays
in
the stereo and bi-amp modes.
This unit
is
equipped with a bi-amp mode to enable a complete
bi-amp connection using two SC-11 S1
s.
This complete bi-
amp connection is a high-end technique for enhancing sound
quality, proposed
by
Marantz. Using this system, the bi-amp
supporting speakersystem
is
separated from the preamplifiers
that separately drive the low and high speakers. (For more
information, see
