The DTR-8.3 allows you to watch and listen to two separate input
sources at the same time. This allows you to, for example, place
speakers and a television in two different rooms so that two or more
people can enjoy two different movies at the same time. The room
where the DTR-8.3 is actually located is referred to as the main room
while the separate room is referred to as the remote zone (Zone 2). In
addition, the IR IN/OUT terminal of the DTR-8.3 allows you to
control the DTR-8.3 from the remote zone (Zone 2) with the remote
controller even though the remote zone is physically separated. The
diagram below shows how to make the proper connections for the
remote zone.
When using the ZONE 2 OUT terminals
When you have connected all the speakers for 7.1-channel audio in
the main room, connect the speakers as shown below.
The ZONE 2 OUT terminal is a constant output. Connect to the
LINE input of the amplifier (CD, tape, etc.). Adjust the volume with
the amplifier connected to the ZONE 2 OUT terminal.
1. Connect the DTR-8.3 to the amplifier for the remote
zone.
2. Connect the remote zone speaker cables to the
speaker terminals on the amplifier.
3. Connect the DTR-8.3 to the monitor for the remote
zone.
Note:
The ZONE 2 out terminals of the DTR-8.3 are of a fixed output
level.
