Sometimes I'm not too smart.
I have a Pioneer VSX-D811S that I used to enjoy but with all the other gear I've acquired it's just sitting there. I got interested in using it as a preamp for a Crown power amp but I'm not 100% sure I'm looking at the wiring correctly and needed a little hand holding.

If you go to page 24, it shows the preamp outputs, but the way its drawn has me a little confused. It looks like a regular RCA but the way its depicted shows a single wire splitting to two RCA connections. Am I overthinking this and that's just a regular red/white RCA cable? I know I'd have to use a an XLR adapter for the Crown.
Mostly I'm curious to see what will happen short of turning whatever speakers I hook up to it inside out. I've been reading some interesting things about Crown amps and you see them around for pretty darn cheap so it's mostly an experiment in high SPL's
Thanks in advance.
