The Pioneer VSX-519V is a home theater receiver that is designed to power speakers directly. It does not have dedicated preamp outputs or other connections specifically designed for connecting an external amplifier. Therefore, you cannot directly hook up an amplifier to the VSX-519V.

However, if you still want to use an external amplifier with your setup, there is a workaround you can try. You can use the "preamp outputs" on the back of the VSX-519V, which are typically used for connecting a powered subwoofer, to connect an external amplifier.

Here's how you can do it:

  1. Connect the RCA preamp outputs (usually labeled as "Subwoofer Out" or "Pre Out") on the VSX-519V to the inputs of your external amplifier. These outputs typically provide a line-level signal.
  2. Make sure the external amplifier has compatible inputs for the connection. Most amplifiers have RCA inputs, so you'll need RCA cables to connect the preamp outputs to the amplifier.
  3. Once the connection is established, you will need to adjust the settings on the VSX-519V to redirect the audio to the external amplifier. Typically, you need to go into the receiver's setup menu and configure the speaker settings to "Subwoofer: None" or "Speaker Configuration: Small" to ensure that the full range of audio is sent to the external amplifier.
  4. Finally, connect your speakers to the outputs of the external amplifier.

Keep in mind that by using this method, you'll be bypassing the built-in amplifier of the Pioneer VSX-519V and using the external amplifier to power your speakers instead. Make sure the amplifier you use is compatible with your speakers and can handle the power requirements.

Yes, there are certain exceptions to this rule as well, where you can incorporate additional amps into a setup with an already installed receiver. But generally speaking, you use a stereo amp for hi-fi, and an AV receiver for home theater. It really is that simple.
