Multi-room listening

This receiver can power two independent systems in separate rooms after you have made the proper multi-

room connections.1 Different sources can be playing in both rooms at the same time or, depending on your needs, the same source can also be used. The main and sub rooms have independent power (the main room power can be off while the sub room is on) and the sub room can be controlled by the front panel controls. However, you may need to specify the volume setting in Multi-Room and IR receiver setup on page 59.

Making multi-room connections

It is possible to make these connections if you have a separate TV and speakers for your sub room. You will also need a separate amplifier if you are not using the SurrBack System setup (see below). There are two multi- room setups possible with this system:

Basic multi-room setup

Connect a separate amplifier to the MULTI- ROOM & SOURCE ROOM 2 jacks and a TV monitor to the MULTI-ROOM & SOURCE MONITOR OUT jacks, both on the rear of this receiver.

You should have a pair of speakers attached to the sub room amplifier as shown in the illustration below.

08

Surround Back System multi-room setup

You must select MR & S in Surround back speaker setting on page 35 to use this setup. Note that the sound in the sub room will be temporarily interrupted when controlling the main room (for example, changing the input source or starting playback).

Connect a TV monitor to the MULTI-ROOM & SOURCE MONITOR OUT jacks on the rear of this receiver.

You should have a pair of speakers attached to the surround back speaker terminals as shown below.
