MULTI-ZONE setup

This receiver can power up to two independent
systems in separate rooms after you have
made the proper MULTI-ZONE connections.

Different sources can be playing in two zones
at the same time or, depending on your needs,
the same source can also be used. The main
and sub zone have independent power (the
main zone power can be off while sub zone is
on) and the sub zone can be controlled by the
remote or front panel controls. However, you
may need to specify the volume settings in
ZONE Audio Setup on page 99.

Making MULTI-ZONE connections

It is possible to make these connections if you
have a separate TV and speakers for the sub
zone (

ZONE2). You will also need a separate

amplifier if you are not using the

MULTI-ZONE

setup using speaker terminals (Zone 2) below
for the sub zone.

MULTI-ZONE listening options

The following table shows the signals that can
be output to ZONE 2:

Basic MULTI-ZONE setup (Zone 2)

Connect a separate amplifier to the AUDIO

ZONE2 OUT jacks and a TV monitor to the
VIDEO ZONE2 OUT jack, both on this receiver.
You should have a pair of speakers attached to
the sub zone amplifier as shown in the
following illustration.

MULTI-ZONE setup using speaker
terminals (Zone 2)

You must select

ZONE 2 in Surround back

speaker setting on page 94 to use this setup.
Note that the sound in the sub zone will be
temporarily interrupted when controlling the
main zone (for example, changing the input
function or starting playback).

Connect a TV monitor to the VIDEO

ZONE2 OUT jacks on this receiver.
You should have a pair of speakers attached to
the surround back speaker terminals as shown
