Secondary MULTI-ZONE setup (ZONE 3)

1

Connect a separate amplifier to the AUDIO ZONE3

OUT jacks and a TV monitor to the VIDEO ZONE3 OUT
jacks, both on the rear of this amplifier.

2

Connect a separate amplifier to the ZONE3/

SOURCE OUT digital output on the rear of this
amplifier.
The amplifier must have an optical digital input to make
this connection. This will allow you to hear the digital
output of a component in a second sub zone.

Using the MULTI-ZONE controls

The following steps use the front panel controls to adjust

the sub zone volume and select sources.

1

See

MULTI-

ZONE remote controls on page 67.

1

Press ZONE2 or ZONE3 to select the desired zone

(room).
The zone turns on and off each time the corresponding
button is pressed. It is possible to turn both on.

2

Press CTRL to select the sub zone(s) you want.

2

If you selected

ZONE 2 ON and ZONE 3 ON above, you

can toggle among

ZONE 2, ZONE 3 and ZONE 2&3.

• When the amplifier is on,

3

make sure that any

operations for the sub zone are done while

ZONE and

your selected sub zone(s) show in the display. If this
is not showing, the front panel controls affect the
main zone only.

3

Use the INPUT SELECTOR dial to select the source

for the zone you have selected.
For example,

ZONE 2 CD-R sends the source connected

to the

CD-R inputs to the primary (ZONE 2) sub room.

4

Use the MASTER VOLUME dial to adjust the

volume.
This is only possible if you selected the

VARIABLE

volume control in

ZONE Audio Setup on page 97.

4

5

When you’re finished, press CTRL again to return to

the main zone controls.
You can also press the

ZONE 2 or ZONE 3 button on the

front panel to switch off all output to the sub zone(s).

3 If the amplifier is in standby, the display is dimmed, and

ZONE and your selected sub zone(s) continue to show in the display.

4 The volume levels of the main and sub zones are independent.
5 • You won’t be able to switch the main zone off completely unless you’ve switched off the MULTI-ZONE control first.

• If you don’t plan to use the MULTI-ZONE feature for awhile, turn off the power in both the sub and main rooms so that this amplifier is in standby.
