The TX-DS898 allows you to connect another set of speakers and
place them in a different room or separated area for listening to
music. This other room or area is referred to as the remote zone
(Zone 2), while the room where the TX-DS898 is located is the
main zone. In addition, the IR IN/OUT allows you to control the
TX-DS898 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.
