The receiver says 9.2, but I see 11 channels on the back. Will the amp only power 9 channels?

Correct. When you put it into 11-channel mode the amplified "front wide" outputs are disabled. To get all 11 at once you need to hook an external 2-channel amp to the front wide pre-outs. See page 14 in the manual.

I wouldn't use this unit. It will not drive 8 ohms speakers even though it's rated 90W. Also if you don't connect both channels it will severely overheat. Must be the way the amp is designed.

It can be bi-amped, per owner's manual. It has separate amps for each channel to make this possible.

Think of this unit as 5 individual power amps to do as you please. Use "Y" input connectors to create 2 sets of 2 speaker outputs. Add an external equalizer if you need further adjustments. What you'll want to do with the 5th channel is anyone's guess. I hope this helps.

Yes, you can run up to 9 speakers plus 2 subwoofers. This receiver will do what you want it to without a problem.

This is not an amp. It takes an output to speakers and can run different sets of speakers. If you do not have enough power in your receiver to run the speakers it will not work. Each time you turn on a set of speakers it will drop the power by a percentage. Some receivers can not handle more then three sets.

i have this receiver and love it. I power 3 zones with it. All you need is speakers for zone 2 and 3. No additional amplifiers needed as all 3 zones are powered by the receiver itself. if you run 2 sets of speakers per zone, make sure your speakers have an impedance matching the receivers impedance. Do your research about how to connect them to not generate the wrong impedance. Connect speakers in series: add up impedance and you are on the safe side. If your wiring does not allow to connect them in series, make sure each of the 2 speakers you connect in parallel have double the impedance than the minimum impedance your receiver can support. Example: minimum impedance 8Ohms means you could either run 2 speakers each 4 ohms or higher in series (totals to 8 Ohms or higher) OR 2 speakers 16 ohms or higher in parallel (totals 8 ohms or higher).

Yes, this amp's output per channel is 140w. All you need to do is to press the stereo button on the remote, depending on your music taste, change the tone. It will do the rest. Powerful amp it is.

Sorry for the late response! Yes, please know the 8w out put is correct, and more accurately it is 8w*2, each channel is 8w. Hope this helps.

I can tell you, yes. If ur reciever can handle it then always Bi-amp. Does it use a lot more power? hell yea...just a fair warning.

A stereo amplifier is normally rated per channel and almost never two amps combined. So it should be 10 watts/channel.

I'm not sure if I could honestly answer your question because I'm using all five channels for my system. However, it's a great amp with a lot of power.

Not sure if I understand the question fully but if you are looking to use 4 speakers on a 4 channel receiver, you will do fine. If you decide to place 4 speakers on a 2 channel receiver or amp, it will work but the power and quality are much reduced.

I am sorry, but the receiver you have doesn't have pre-amp outputs. You can't add any amp to this receiver. Sorry. Some of the higher end receivers have pre-amp outputs that allow you to add external amplification.

the receiver is a 9.2 channel capable amp...therefore it can run 4 pairs of speakers and a center channel speaker...also 2 powered subwoofers...thats 2 fronts, 2 rear surround, 2 side surrounds, 2 outdoor or b speakers & a center channel speaker...2 subs also...it is an outstanding clean powerful razor sharp receiver...i am impressed!!!

Hi Gonzalez, The amp says it is 5.1 that means 2 front speakers, 2 back speakers a center speaker (2+2+1=5) and a subwoofer (.1) You can be sure that there is a subwoofer out in the receiver. Hope this helps!

The specs for this amp indicate 40 watts of power for each channel....so I believe it would be within your speakers' parameter.
