I have a Pioneer 1120 receiver with pre outs for every speaker. The preouts are all marked + or -. My Adcom 7500 has inputs for every speaker but there is only one input for each speaker and the inputs are white. The Adcom manual doesn't mention this type of connection. Can someone tell me how these connections should be made and please don't tell me it can't be done.:smile:
TIA!



Sorry I started another thread before I realized there was an open thread where I should have posted this question.

    The pre-outs on the back of the 1120 are labeled one for each speaker, you should only need 5 interconnect cables. They're labeled left and right not + or -.
