also its a 6.1 system so all 3 amps would be running one set of speakers. fronts to one surrounds left and right to one, and the center and back surround to another. yes the receiver has pre outs for this. but how do you hook it up i know you have to use cables to run from the receiver to amp. but the wiring is what confuses me. if you only wire from the amp then you lose the power of your reciever. so what do you do. do you just run two sets of wire one from the reciver one from the amp and then twist them together and insert them into the binding posts. see this is why i'm confused.
