Many Rotel surround receivers include an amplifier redirect feature that allows you to customize your amplification based on your system.

For 5 channel receiver models, the redirect feature means it is possible to connect a more powerful amplifier for the Front Main speakers while the front channels of the receiver are “redirected” to power the Center Back speaker(s) in the system.

For the 7 channel receiver models RSX-1067, it is possible to utilize the built-in center back amplifiers of the RSX-1067 to power a set of speakers in a second zone when the home theater is configured for 5.1 audio.

For the 7 channel receiver models RSX-1560 and RSX-1562, in addition to redirecting the center back amplifiers to one of the remote zones, another option is to redirect these amplifiers to power the front channels in a biamp configuration, so you can utilize 2 channels of amplification per speaker.
