Connecting the remote zone (Zone 2) speakers
The TX-SR701/701E/601/601E allows you to listen to two separate
input sources at the same time. This allows you to, for example,
place speakers in two different rooms so that two or more people
can enjoy two different kinds of music at the same time. The room
where the TX-SR701/701E/601/601E 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 terminal of the TX-
SR701/701E/601/601E allows you to control the TX-SR701/701E/
601/601E from the remote zone (Zone 2) with the remote controller
even though the remote zone is physically separated. The diagrams
below show how to make the proper connections for the remote
zone.
You can connect the speakers for the remote zone (Zone 2) to the
ZONE 2 SPEAKERS terminals.
When you connect the speakers to the ZONE 2 SPEAKERS
terminals, set the “Hardware Config” setting to “Zone 2.” In this
setting, while you use the remote zone (Zone 2), surround playback
will not be available for the main room (2ch stereo playback only).
When you are not using the Zone 2, 6.1-channel playback will be
available for the main room.
Note:
It is important to be aware of the speaker impedance (see page 31).
The ZONE 2 LINE 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 LINE OUT terminal.
In this connection, whatever the “Hardware Config” setting is set to,
6.1 channel playback is always available for main room.
1. Connect the TX-SR701/701E/601/601E to the amplifier
for the remote zone.
2. Connect the remote zone speaker cables to the
speaker terminals on the amplifier.
