Multi-room listening
This receiver can power up to three independent systems
in separate rooms after you have made the proper multi-
room connections. An example multi-room setup is
shown below, but the number of multi-room connections
(and the way you choose to connect them) depends on
how you want to set up your system.

Different sources can be playing in three rooms at the
same time or, depending on your needs, the same source
can also be used. The main and sub rooms have
independent power (the main room power can be off
while one (or both) of the sub rooms is on) and the sub
rooms can be controlled by the remote or front panel
controls. However, you may need to specify the volume
settings in Multi-Room setup on page 65.
Making multi-room connections
It is possible to make these connections if you have a
separate TV and speakers for your primary (ROOM 2) sub
room, and a separate amplifier
secondary (ROOM 3) sub room. You will also need a
separate amplifier if you are not using the Surround Back
System setup (see below) for your primary sub room.
There are two primary sub room setups possible with this
system. Choose whichever works best for you.
Note
1 You can't use sound controls (such as the tone controls or Midnight listening) or any surround modes with a separate amplifier in the sub room. You
can, however, use the features available with your sub room amplifier.
