Connecting an external power amplifier
(RX-V779 only)
When connecting an external power amplifier (pre-main amplifier) to enhance speaker
output, connect the input jacks of the power amplifier to the PRE OUT jacks of the unit.
The same channel signals are output from the PRE OUT jacks as from their
corresponding SPEAKERS terminals.
1 SUR. BACK jacks
Output surround back channel sounds. When using only one external amplifier for the surround
back channel, connect it to the SINGLE jack (L side).
2 SURROUND jacks
Output surround channel sounds.
3 CENTER jack
Outputs center channel sounds.
4 FRONT jacks
Output front channel sounds.
5 SUBWOOFER1–2 jacks
For connecting a subwoofer with built-in amplifier. When 2 subwoofers are connected, the same
sound is output from them.
Connecting a device compatible with the trigger function
The trigger function can control an external device in conjunction with operating the
unit (such as powering on/off and input selection). If you have a Yamaha subwoofer that
supports a system connection or a device with a trigger input jack, you can use the
trigger function by connecting the external device to the TRIGGER OUT jack with a
monaural mini-jack cable.
• You can configure the trigger function settings in “Trigger Output” (p.115) in the “Setup” menu.
7 Connecting other devices
Caution
• To prevent the generation of loud noises or abnormal sounds, make sure the followings before making
connections.
– Remove the power cable of the unit and turn off the external power amplifier before connecting them.
– When using the PRE OUT jacks, do not connect speakers to the corresponding SPEAKERS
terminals.
– When using an external amplifier that does not have the volume control bypass, do not connect other
devices (except the unit) to the amplifier.
