When selected in the main room, i.LINK sources can’t be heard in the sub room unless they can output both i.LINK and analog signals at the same time. Also, the sound from an i.LINK source selected in the sub room switches off if the same source is selected as an i.LINK source in the main room.

Using the sub room controls

You can use the remote to adjust the sub room volume and select sources from either the main room or the sub room. You can also do this using the front panel controls.
