Q: QuestionI see this powers 145w to each channel. I only plan to run two passive speakers and a powered sub. If I get speakers that require over 145w, is there a way to connect two of the channels together to add up to 290w?

Asked 5 years ago by erik.

• A:Answer No you can't do that unless you want to smoke the amplifier section of the receiver. Just hook on speaker to the Left main, and one to the right main, and use your pre-amp sub out plug and go. Just because your speakers are rated for over 145wpc, they will should play just fine with the power this receiver has.
