Select “EXT” if you want to connect your Zone 2 speakers through an external amplifier connected to the ZONE 2 OUTPUT jacks on the rear panel of this unit.

Select “INT:Sur.” to use the internal surround amplifier of this unit if you want to connect your Zone 2 speakers directly to the PRESENCE/ZONE 2(3) speaker terminals on the rear panel of this unit.

Select “INT:PRNS” to use the internal surround back amplifier of this unit if you want to connect your Zone 2 speakers directly to the PRESENCE/ZONE 2(3) speaker terminals on the rear panel of this unit.

Select “INT:Both” to use the internal surround and surround back amplifiers of this unit if you want to connect you Zone 2 speakers directly to both the PRESENCE/ZONE 2(3) and the SURROUND/ZONE 2(3) speaker terminals on the rear panel of this unit.

Notes

If BI-AMP is set to ON in the ADVANCED SETUP menu (see page 95), there will be no audio output at the selected speaker terminals although INT:Sur., INT:PRNS and INT:BOTH can be selected in the GUI menu.

Zone 2 and Zone 3 cannot use the same amplifier at the same time. If INT:Both is selected for Zone2 Amplifier, for instance, only EXT can be selected for Zone3 Amplifier and vice versa.

The Intelligent Power AMP Assign feature of this unit becomes in effect in the following cases so that the surround and surround back amplifiers of this unit are automatically assigned to the main room for the use of the surround back speakers connected to the SURROUND BACK speaker terminals in the 7.1-channel system.

When Zone2 Amplifier and Zone3 Amplifier are set to INT:PRNS and EXT respectively and Zone 2 is turned off

When Zone2 Amplifier and Zone3 Amplifier are set to EXT and INT:PRNS respectively and Zone 3 is turned off

If either Zone2 Amplifier or Zone3 Amplifier is set to INT:Sur. or INT:BOTH, Surround (see page 84), Surround Back (see page 84) and Presence (see page 85) in Speaker Set are all automatically set to None. As a result, the speaker system of the main room is limited to 3.1 or 2.1-channel playback no matter when Zone 2 or Zone 3 is turned off because the SURROUND/ ZONE 2(3) speaker terminals are used for the zone connection.
