Amp Assign / Multi-zone Connections and Operations
The AVR-1909 is compatible with the following
types of playback:
• Multi-zone playback (ZONE2)
• Bi-amp playback (front speakers)
Multi-zone Settings with the Amp Assign Function
The amp assign function lets you assign the amplifiers for the different channels built into the AVR-1909 to
the speaker outputs for the different zones.
Select the desired playback environment from among "Setting 1" to "Setting 3", then set the corresponding
"Amp Assign" mode at menu "Manual Setup" – "Option Setup" – "Amp Assign" (vpage 29).
Connect the speakers as described at "Amp Assign mode setting and speakers connected to the various
speaker terminals".
