Multi-source and multi-zone playback

MULTI ROOM MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM
• When the outputs of the MULTI SOURCE AUDIO OUT terminals are wired and connected to integrated amplifiers installed in other rooms,

different sources can be played in rooms other than the main room in which this unit and the playback devices are installed. (Refer to ANOTHER
ROOM on the diagram below.)

• When a sold separately room-to-room remote control unit (DENON RC-616, 617 or 618) is wired and connected between the main room and

another room, the remote-controllable devices in the main room can be controlled from another room using the remote control unit.

*

To control playback devices other than the ones above, either use that device’s remote control unit or preset a separately sold programmable
remote control unit.

NOTES:
• For the AUDIO output, use high quality pin-plug cords and wire in such a way that there is no humming or noise.
• For instructions on installation and operation of separately sold devices, refer to the devices’ operating instructions.

(Main unit)

(Remote control unit)

Once this is selected, the input signals connected to the FL
(front left), FR (front right), C (center), SL (surround left) and
SR (surround right) channels of the EXT. IN jacks are output
directly to the front (left and right), center and surround (left
and right) speaker systems as well as the pre-out jacks
without passing through the surround circuitry.
In addition, the signal input to the SW (subwoofer) jack is
output to the PRE OUT SUBWOOFER jack.
When 8CH EXT. IN is selected, the input signals
connected to the EL (effect left) and ER (effect right) jacks
are output to the PRE OUT effect (left and right) jacks.
Refer to page 26 for setting the number of external input
channels.

mode (DIRECT, STEREO, DOLBY/DTS SURROUND, 5CH STEREO
or DSP SIMULATION) cannot be set.

NOTES:
• In play modes other than the external input mode, the signals

connected to these jacks cannot be played. In addition, signals
cannot be output from channels not connected to the input
jacks.

• The external input mode can be set for any input source. To

watch video while listening to sound, select the input source to
which the video signal is connected, then set this mode.
