A power amp is an audio amplifier that is used to boost the audio signal from your receiver and send it to a speaker system. If you're using a Yamaha RX-A2070, the best option for wiring up a power amp would be to connect it with an RCA cable. You'll need two RCA cables, one for the left channel and one for the right.
