Zone 2
In addition to the main listening room, you can also enjoy
playback in another room, or as we call Zone 2. And, you
can select a different source for each room.
Connecting the Zone Speakers to an
Additional Amplifier
This setup allows 5.1-channel playback in your main
listening room and 2-channel stereo playback in Zone 2.
Note
• The volume of Zone 2 must be set on the Zone 2 amplifier.
■ Operating on the AV receiver
■ Operating on the remote controller
To control Zone 2, you must press ZONE2 on the remote
controller first.
Note
• Only analog input sources are output by the ZONE 2 LINE
OUT. Digital input sources are not output. If no sound is heard
when an input source is selected, verify that the source is
connected to an analog input.
• You cannot select different AM or FM radio stations for your
main room and Zone 2. The same AM/FM radio station will be
heard in each room. Namely, if you have selected an FM station
for the main room, that station will also be output in Zone 2.
• When you have selected NET or USB as the input selector, the
last selector selected will be set for Main room and Zone 2.
• When Zone 2 is activated and its input selector is selected, the
power consumption of standby mode slightly increases.
• While Zone 2 is on, functions will not work.
• When setting the AV receiver to standby mode while Zone 2 is
active, the Z2 indicator is dimly lit.
• Activating Zone 2 in the main room when the listening mode is
set to Pure Audio (European and Australian models) will
automatically switch it to Direct.
