SYSTEM POWER and STANDBY work differently depending on the selected mode that appears on the display window.

• When normal, Zone 2 or Zone 3 mode is selected, you can turn the main unit, Zone 2 or Zone 3 to on/standby individually.

• When System mode is selected, or when “2000” or “2002” (see page 71) is selected as the amplifier library (L:AMP) code, you can turn the main unit, Zone 2 and Zone 3 to on/standby simultaneously.

■Special considerations for DTS software

The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. If you attempt to send the DTS signal to the second/third room you will only hear digital noise (that may damage your speakers). Thus, the following considerations and adjustments need to be made when playing DTS encoded discs.

For DVDs encoded with DTS

Only 2 channel analog audio signals may be sent to the second/third room.

Use the disc menu to set the DVD player’s mixed 2- channel left and right audio outputs to the PCM or Dolby Digital soundtrack.
