Multi Zone

In addition to your 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.

Connecting Zone 2

There are two ways you can connect Zone 2 speakers:

1.Connect them directly to the AV receiver.

2.Connect them to an amp in Zone 2.

Connecting Your Zone 2 Speakers Directly to the AV receiver

This setup allows 7.1-channel playback in your main room and 2-channel stereo playback in Zone 2, with a different source in each room. This is called Powered Zone 2, as the Zone 2 speakers are powered by the AV receiver. Note that when Powered Zone 2 is turned off, you can enjoy 9.1- channel playback in your main room.

To use this setup, you must set the “Powered Zone2” setting to “Act” (➔ 75).

Hookup

• Connect your Zone 2 speakers to the AV receiver’s FRONT

WIDE/ZONE 2 L/R terminals.

Connecting Your Zone 2 Speakers to an Amp in Zone 2

This setup allows 9.1-channel playback in your main lis- tening room and 2-channel stereo playback in Zone 2, with a different source in each room.

Note

•With the default settings, the Zone 2 volume must be set on the Zone 2 amp. If your Zone 2 amp has no volume control, set the “Zone2 Out” setting to “Variable” so that you can set the Zone 2 volume on the AV receiver (➔ 75).

Zone 2 12V Trigger

When Zone 2 is turned on, the output from the ZONE 2 12V TRIGGER OUT goes high (+12 volts, 150 milliam- peres max). Connecting this jack to a 12-volt trigger input on a component in Zone 2 will make that component turn on or off as and when Zone 2 is turned on or off on the AV receiver.
