Multi zone music entertainment system
•When the outputs of the ZONE2 OUT terminals are wired and connected to integrated amplifiers
installed in other rooms, different sources can be played in rooms other than the MAIN ZONE in which
this unit and the playback devices are installed. (Refer to ZONE2 on the diagram below.)
•ZONE2 speaker out and pre-out can be used when “ZONE2” is selected at “Power Amp Assignment”
in the “System Setup Menu”. In this case, surround back speaker out cannot be used for MAIN ZONE.
When a sold separately room-to-room remote control unit (DENON RC-616, 617 or 618) is wired and
connected between the MAIN ZONE and ZONE2, the remote-controllable devices in the MAIN ZONE
can be controlled from ZONE2 using the remote control unit.
For the AUDIO outputs, use high quality pin-plug cables 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.
When the main unit is set to the recording output mode, ZONE2 remote control button cannot be
operated.
