Using bi-amplification connections
This unit allows you to make bi-amplification connections
to one speaker system. Check if your speakers support bi-
amplification.
To make the bi-amplification connections, use the FRONT
and SURROUND BACK/BI-AMP terminals as shown
below. To activate the bi-amplification connections, set
“BI-AMP” to “ON” in “ADVANCED SETUP” (see
page 126).
When you make the conventional connection, make sure that the
shorting bars are put into the terminals of the speakers
appropriately. Refer to the instruction manuals of the speakers for
details.
