Connecting the remote zone (Zone 2)
speakers

Outline

The DTR-8.2 allows you to connect another set of speakers and
place them in a different room or separated area for listening to
music. This other room or area is referred to as the remote zone
(Zone 2), while the room where the DTR-8.2 is located is the main
zone. In addition, the IR IN/OUT allows you to control the DTR-
8.2 from the remote zone (Zone 2) with the remote controller even
though the remote zone is physically separated. The diagram
below shows how to make the proper connections for the remote
zone.
When using the SURR BACK/ZONE 2 SPEAKERS

can connect the speakers for the remote zone (Zone 2) to the open
SURR BACK/ZONE 2 SPEAKERS terminals.
With this connection, select "Activated" for the Speaker Setup →
Powered Zone 2 setting in the Setup menu (See page 32).
