Amp Assign / Multi Zone Connections and
Operations
The AVR-5308CI is compatible with the following types of playback:
• Multi-zone playback (ZONE2 & ZONE3)
• Bi-amp playback (front speaker)
• Bi-wiring playback (front speaker)
NOTE
• For bi-amp and bi-wiring playback, use speakers compatible with that type of connection.
• When conducting bi-amp or bi-wiring playback, remove the short-circuiting boards (or wires) from the
speaker terminals.
Multi-Zone Settings with the Amp Assign Function
The amp assign function lets you assign the amplifiers for the different channels built into the AVR-5308CI
to the speaker outputs for the different zones.
Select the desired playback environment from among “Setting 1” to “Setting 8”, then set the corresponding
“Amp Assign” mode at GUI menu “Manual Setup” – “Option Setup” – “Amp Assign” (vpage 40).
Connect the speakers as described at “Speaker connections”.
