Default Pre out question

On my single output Pioneer 1-1/2 din receiver, the output says
Pre Out "R"

My guess is that this is just a pre out for the "rear" signal only, no front signal

Does this sound right?

I just bought a new PHOENIX GOLD Octane-R 4.0:2 2 Channel Amp 2 X 75 watt, to power my 2 front 6.5 " Infinity Speakers,

and I will use my 2 X 150 Jensen watt amp (temporarily) to power two 8JBL GTO 8" subs

The next purchase should be a new 200 x 2 or there abouts and then 2 new subs,,,, little by little,,,

TIA

This is just a guess but most likely the "r" output does stand for rear and is most likely non-fade (does not fade with fader changes on the deck to front/rear). This is the output you would want to use for your sub.

Thanks, I have arranged and rearranged my connects etc and I only get all rear or all front.

The new receiver will fix this, it has 2 Pre Outs.

You could just hook it up to the rear channel, then power your rear speakers from the stereo amp front.

Or get an amp that accepts hilevel outputs.
