Playing back music in multiple rooms (multi-zone)

The multi-zone function allows you to play back different input sources in the room where the unit is installed (main zone) and in another room (Zone2).

For example, while you are watching TV in the living room (main zone), another person can listen to radio in the study room (Zone2).

Video/audio signals that can be output to Zone2 vary depending on how you connect the device in Zone2 to the unit’s output jacks. For details, see “Multi-zone output” (p.141).

Since there are many possible ways to use the unit in a multi-zone configuration, we recommend that you consult with your nearest authorized Yamaha dealer or service center about the multi-zone connections that best meet your requirements.
