Hi, sorry for the noobie post, I tried to search and came up dry.
I just bought a 1065 to form the backbone of my new and first HT. I have an older Acurus A250 2 channel amp that I intended to use for the two front main speakers, thus freeing up the 5 1065 internal channels for the center and 4 surround speakers. I have the unit but will not be installing until this weekend and was poking through the owners manual .pdf and noticed that there is obviously only speaker outputs for the 5 main channels on the 1065. So my question:
Obviously I was planning on using the preouts for the front speakers to the amp and connecting the speaker wires to the outboard amp. Am I able to reprogram the 1065 to allow the on board speaker posts or connections to power the other 5 speakers, or do I HAVE to use the outboard amp for the 6 and 7 channels, with the fronts connected to the 1065?
I hope this makes sense to someone who may be able to help.
Thanks much.
