2 About the Bi-amp connection<br />

Some audiophile loudspeakers can be connected to an amplifier with two separate amp-to-speaker connections per each speaker. One amplifier<br />

channel’s output is hooked up to the speaker’s bass driver (woofer), while the other amplifier drives the upper range transducers (tweeter, or <strong>in</strong><br />

some cases midrange and tweeter). This connection method has one amplifier channel driv<strong>in</strong>g one half of the bi-amp speaker, and avoids electrical<br />

<strong>in</strong>terference between the speaker’s bass and treble drivers and the driv<strong>in</strong>g amplifier channels. You can assign 4 amp channels to connect to one pair<br />

of bi-amp capable speakers. Bi-amp capable speakers always have two sets of speaker <strong>in</strong>put connector pairs, one for the bass range and one for<br />

the treble range. If you’re unsure about whether or not your speakers are bi-amp capable, consult the owner’s manual that came with the speakers.<br />

• For how to connect the center, surround speaker and the subwoofer to this unit, see “Standard Speaker Connection” (vpage 35).<br />
