Connecting Zone 2

Using Only Speakers in Zone 2

 

 

 

With the Zone 2 function, you can enjoy one input source in the main room and a different source in another room.

There are two connection methods: using a receiver/inte- grated amp in Zone 2 or using only a pair of speakers in Zone 2.

Using a Receiver/Integrated Amp in Zone 2

With this connection method, you can use 7.1 surround sound in the main room and play a different AV source in Zone 2. The volume for Zone 2 is set on the receiver/ integrated amp.

Use an RCA audio cable to connect the AV receiver’s ZONE 2 LINE OUT L/R jacks to an analog audio input on your receiver/integrated amp.

Connect the Zone 2 speakers to the speaker terminals on the receiver/integrated amp.
