Enjoying music in multiple rooms
Playing back music in multiple rooms
The multi-zone function allows you to play back different input sources in the room
where the unit is installed (Main zone) and in another room (Zone2).
For example, while you are watching TV in the living room (Main zone), another person
can listen to radio in the study room (Zone2).
Two methods for connecting the device that will be used in Zone2 to the unit are
available; using the unit’s internal amplifier or using an external amplifier. When using
an external amplifier, you can select 7.1/5.1.2-channel speaker system in Main zone.
• “Connecting Zone2 speakers using the unit’s internal amplifier” (p.51)
• “Connecting Zone2 speakers using an external amplifier” (p.53)
Living room (Main zone)
Study room (Zone2)
Note
▪ Digital and analog audio sources (including FM/AM radio), Bluetooth, USB, and network sources can be
output to Zone2. To listen to the playback of an external device in Zone2, you need to connect the device
to the AUDIO jacks (AV 1-2, AUDIO 1-5 or
PHONO jacks) of the unit.
▪
“Main Zone Sync” allows you to play back the same audio output in Main zone as Zone2. When “Main
Zone Sync” is selected as the Zone2 input, the Zone2 input automatically switches in conjunction with the
input source selected in the main zone.
▪ The party mode allows you to play back the same audio output in Main zone as Zone2, whatever the input
audio signal type. Multichannel sources are mixed down to 2 channels and output to the Zone2. For
details on the party mode, see the following:
– “Enjoying the same source in multiple rooms (party mode)” (p.55)
Connecting Zone2 speakers
n
Connecting Zone2 speakers using the unit’s internal
amplifier
Connect the speakers placed in Zone2 to the unit with a speaker cable.
Notice
▪ Unplug the unit’s power cable from an AC wall outlet before connecting the speakers.
To enable the multi-zone function, configure the necessary speaker settings. For
details, see the following:
• “Available configurations for advanced speaker systems using the unit’s internal
amplifier” (p.
26)
• “Assigning speaker configuration” (p.37)
• “Setting your speaker system” (p.94)
Note
You can also connect Zone2 speakers using an external amplifier. For details, see the following:
▪ “Connecting Zone2 speakers using an external amplifier” (p.53)
