ZONE 2

This unit allows you to configure a multi-room audio system. You can control this unit from the second room using the supplied remote control.

Only analog signals are sent to the second room. Any source you want to listen to in the second room must be connected using the analog (AUDIO L/R) input jacks on this unit.

Zone 2 connections

You need the following additional equipment to use the multi-room functions of this unit:

An infrared signal receiver in the second room.

An infrared emitter in the main room. This emitter transmits the infrared signals from the remote control in the second room to the main room (to a CD player, for example).

An amplifier and speakers for the second room.

y

Since there are many possible ways to connect and use this unit in a multi-room installation, we recommend that you consult with your nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center about the Zone 2 connections that best meet your requirements.

Some YAMAHA models are able to connect directly to the REMOTE CONTROL OUT jack of this unit. If you own these products, you may not need to use an infrared emitter. Up to 6 YAMAHA components can be connected as shown.
