Bryston 9B SST2----Stupid Question

I have a Bryston 9B SST2 5 channel amp that is part of an estate that I have agreed to sell for a relative. The owner of the unit is deceased so I cannot ask him this question. No manual.

I'm trying to test it to make sure everything works before I sell it. I've got the speakers hooked up. I've got the pre-amp hooked up.
I just can't tell how to hook pre-amp to the amp. Each of the five channels has two speaker out connects (L/R) but only one single ended or one balanced. How do I plug in the L and R RCA lines out from the pre-amp into the amp?
Sorry to be so stupid about this but I'm stumped.

The RCA output connector on the preamp for the left channel would be connected to the RCA input of the amp channel that is connected to the left speaker. The RCA output connector on the preamp for the right channel would be connected to the RCA input of the amp channel that is connected to the right speaker.

You would have to use two of the five amplifier channels, one for the right speaker and one for the left.  The two speaker-level output terminals on each channel are + and - for a single speaker, rather than left & right.
