Hooking up center channel with wire out puts to a single rca jack

[dewhi]

My Arcam AVP 700 has a single rca jack output but my PSB center channel uses wire inputs. How do I connect them? Thanks

You have to have an amplifier or self-powered speaker. The RCA outputs (or balanced) outputs have to go to an amp before going to speakers. The AVP700 is a preamp not an integrated receiver.

I do - an Anthem integrated 225 with just L and R audio outputs. It does have L an R preamp outputs. Can I use those?

Thanks.

You could use the 225 amp by connecting the PSB speaker to one side and connecting the center output from the AVP700 to any inputs except phono. Just connect to the same side that your speaker is connected.
