DUAL CONNECTION

If you use a speaker system (such as the Pioneer S-AX10) which has bi-wire input terminals, you can run
the high-frequency and low-frequency speakers on separate amplifiers, and this will give you a higher
quality of sound.
You may use audio cords to connect the analogue outputs of up to two control amplifiers to INPUT 1
terminal or INPUT 2 terminal of this appliance as required. It is also possible to utilise the appliance’s
attenuator function to connect a CD player or other source components directly without passing
through the control amplifier.
You should connect this appliance’s HIGH speaker terminals to the tweeter terminals on the speaker 
system, and the LOW speaker terminals to the speakers’ woofer terminals.

CONNECTING AND OPERATING

BEWARE

Take care to connect only to a speaker
system with an impedance of at least 3

½

. To ascertain speaker impedance you

should refer to the manual which came
with the system.

You can also connect ordinary speakers
instead of speakers with bi-wire input 
terminals. In that case you should connect
either to HIGH or to LOW.
