Multiroom Capability

You can use two speaker systems with this AV receiver—a surround-sound speaker system (up to 7.1 channels) in your main listening room, a stereo speaker system in a second room, or Zone 2, as we call it. And, you can select a different audio source for each room.

Main Room: In your main listening room, you can enjoy up to 7.1-channel playback (see page 14). You can enjoy the various listening modes such as Dolby and DTS (see pages 59-65).

*While Powered Zone 2 is being used, playback is reduced to 5.1-channels (see page 82). Zone 2: In your Zone 2 room, you can enjoy 2-channel stereo playback (see page 82).

*The listening modes cannot be used with Zone 2.
