Looking at the rear of the Onkyo: http://www.jr.com/onkyo/pe/ONK_TXNR515/ It looks like you have a 'Pre Out Subwoofer' and a 'Line Out Zone 2' at the bottom, a little left of center. Hook a set of interconnects with RCA ends from the 'Line Out Zone 2' into the power amp inputs. If that doesn't work, try the 'Pre Out Subwoofer'. Chuck |
You should be cautious about connecting from the 'Line out' outputs directly to the power amp. Generally, a line out output means it is not controlled by the volume control on the receiver, meaning you'd be sending the full-volume signal to the power amp, something you probably don't want. The 'Pre-out' connections, on the other hand, should send the signal through the volume control on the receiver. |
If I'm not using Line Outs, the only way left is to connect each speaker OUT on the receiver to the corresponding speaker IN on the amp via the screw down posts. The ones that have a hole in the post. If that's true(?) I'd have to cut one end off the standard RCA jacks, bare the wire and stick the bare end through the posts on the receiver? Then plug the RCA ends into the amp? Thanks to all for your help! rev |
