These connections make for higher quality playback sound with no
interference between the signals of the bass and treble units.
When making a bi-amp connection, the same signal is output from the
front speaker terminal and the “Bi-Wir. or Bi-Amp“ terminal.
NOTE
Use speakers compatible with bi-amp connections.
When making bi-amp connections, be sure to remove the short-
circuiting plate or wire between the speaker’s woofer and tweeter
terminals.
