If you’ve made MULTI-ZONE connections (see MULTI- ZONE listening on page 57) you may need to specify your volume setting.

1Select ‘ZONE Audio Setup’ from the Other Setup menu.

			:Return							:Finish

2Select the volume level setting.1

•Variable – Use this setting if you’ve connected a power amplifier in the sub room (this receiver is simply being used as a pre-amp) and you will be using this receiver’s controls to adjust the volume.

•Fixed – Use this setting if you’ve connected a fully integrated amplifier (such as another Pioneer VSX receiver) in the sub room and want to use that receiver’s volume controls. (This setting is not available if the surround back system setting is set to ZONE 2.)

With the Fixed setting, the source is sent from this receiver at maximum volume, so make sure the volume is quite low in the sub zone at first, and then experiment to find the correct level.

3When you’re finished, press RETURN. You will return to the Other Setup menu.

Note

1 If you selected ZONE 2 in the Surround back speaker setting on page 41, you won’t be able to change the volume level.
