Multi Zone

In addition to the main listening room, you can also enjoy

playback in the other room, or as we call Multi Zone. And,

you can select a different source for each room.

There are two ways you can connect Zone speakers:

1. Connect them directly to the AV receiver.

2. Connect them to an additional amplifier.

Connecting Your Zone Speakers Directly to

the AV receiver

This setup allows you to select different sources for Main

room and Zone 2/3. This is called Powered Zone, as the

Zone 2/3 speakers are powered by the AV receiver.

Note

• With this setup, the volume of Zone 2/3 is controlled by the AV

receiver.

• When Powered Zone 2 is used, playback in the main room is

reduced to 5.1 channels.

• When Powered Zone 3 is used, playback in the main room is

reduced to 3.1 channels.

12V Trigger Out

When Zone 2/3 is turned on, the output from the 12V

TRIGGER OUT jack goes high (+12 V and max. 150 mA

for Zone 2, +12 V and max. 25 mA for Zone 3).

Connecting this jack to a 12-volt trigger input on a

component in Zone 2/3 will make that component turn on

or off as the AV receiver turns on or off the Zone 2/3.

Making Multi Zone Connections

To use this setup, you must activate the Powered

Zone 2/3 setting (➔ page 59).
