ROOM 2 SOURCE PLAYBACK

This function allows enjoying one source in the main room and playing another in a different room at the same time.

When you connect the multi-room system kit to the IR IN jack of this receiver, you can control this receiver with not only the universal remote control unit but also the ROOM 2 remote control unit in a different room, too. (For details, refer to "CONNECTING MULTI-ROOM SYSTEM KIT" on page 14 and "ROOM 2 Remote Controls" on page 30.)

Notes:

The analog signals from the EXTERNAL INs and the digital signals cannot be output to the different room, meaning no playback in a different room.

The HDMI video signals and the component video signals cannot be output to the different room, too.

You cannot play the ROOM 2 source in any surround mode.
