CONNECTIONS
PREPARATION
■ Connecting an external amplifier
This unit has more than enough power for any home use.
However, if you want to add more power to the speaker
output or if you want to use another amplifier, connect an
external amplifier to the PRE OUT jacks.
• When you make connections to the PRE OUT jacks, do not
make connections to the SPEAKERS terminals.
• The signals output at the FRONT PRE OUT and CENTER PRE
OUT jacks are affected by the TONE CONTROL settings (see
page 52).
• Each PRE OUT jack outputs the same channel signals as the
corresponding SPEAKERS terminals.
• Adjust the volume level of the subwoofer with the control on
the subwoofer (see page 53).
• Some signals may not be output at the SUBWOOFER PRE
OUT jack depending on the settings for “Speaker Set” (see
page 105) and “Bass Out” (see page 107).

4 SURROUND BACK/PRESENCE PRE OUT
jacks

y
• Set the “Surround Back” to “Large x2”, “Large x1”, “Small x2”
or “Small x1” and “Presence” to “None” (see page 106) to
output the surround back channel signals at SURROUND
BACK/PRESENCE PRE OUT jacks.
• Set the “Presence” to “Yes” and “Surround Back” to “None”
(see page 106) to output the presence channel signals at
SURROUND BACK/PRESENCE PRE OUT jacks.
