Connecting Additional Amplifiers
To hook up surround back speakers you need to use an additional amplifier. Other than for that purpose this
receiver has more than sufficient power for any home use, but it is possible to add additional amplifiers to
every channel of your system. Make the connections shown below to add amplifiers to power your speakers.
Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the AC
outlet.
