Usually the "pre out" connections of the receiver or pre-pro are connected to the "main in" connections of the amplifier.  I see that these units do have those connections, so it should be as easy as a couple of RCA cords.

Thank you chuckg. I did as you said, but it is still not working. I am wondering whether the signal processing has to be on for Luxman L525 amplifier ( I notice it is off now). Is there any special setting on the front? This is what it looks like now.

Finally I figured it out that there is a warm-up indicator and it takes 2 minutes to have the speakers on. The signal processing on the back needs to be set at on instead of off. Thank you.
