CHAPTER 2
Zone 2 connections
Zone 2 can play stereo analog
sources independently of the Main
Zone, or can play the same source.
Zone 2 can only play a digital source
if the Main Zone is playing the same
source.
Note that Zone 2 has to be enabled
before it can be used. Please see
page 47 for more details of Zone 2
operation.
If you want the Receiver's Aux
speaker-level outputs to run your
Zone 2 speakers, use the AmpliÞ er
OSD menu, under the Speaker menu,
to set Aux to Zone 2 (see page 41).
Long speaker wires are connected to
Speaker-level audio signals

IR sensor signals
From: Zone 2 IR sensor
To: Receiver Zone 2
IR sensor input
As an alternative to using the
Receiver's internal ampliÞ ers to run
your Zone 2 speakers, you could use
an external power ampliÞ er. Connect
the ampliÞ er's line-level inputs to the
Receiver's Zone 2 stereo outputs.
the Aux speaker outputs as shown,
and are run out to your Zone 2 speak-
ers. These are usually located in
another room or area of your house.
If you have an external power
ampliÞ er to run your Zone 2 speak-
ers, connect the Receiver's Zone 2
line-level stereo outputs to the inputs
of your ampliÞ er. Connect your Zone 2
speakers to the ampliÞ er with speaker
wire. The Receiver's Aux channels
can then be used to power other
speakers, such as the surround back
or side-axis speakers.
The wire from an optional IR sensor
is shown connected to the Ultimate
Receiver's Zone 2 IR input. The Re-
ceiver is compatible with most makes
of IR sensors and equipment.
The sensor can be located in a
suitable area of Zone 2, allowing you
complete control of the volume and
source selection. Zone 2 can also be
controlled from the front panel, using
the remote's Zone 2 buttons.
