In a 7.2-channel surround system with surround speakers placed directly at the sides of the listening position,
the surround sound of 5.1-channel sources is heard from the side. This function mixes the sound of the surround
speakers with the surround back speakers so that the surround sound is heard from diagonally to the rear as it
should be.
Depending on the positions of the speakers and the sound source, in some cases it may not be possible to
achieve good results. In this case, set the setting to ON SIDE or IN REAR.
! ON SIDE – Select when the surround speakers is positioned right beside you.
! IN REAR – Select when the surround speaker is positioned obliquely behind you.

Using Multi-ZONE Music
Multi-ZONE Music can be used to play the same sound in the MAIN ZONE, ZONE 2 and ZONE 3, for example for
home parties. Normally set Speaker System to 5.2 +ZONE 2+ZONE 3 for multi-zone/multi-source playback, then
switch it to Multi-ZONE Music when having a home party. When this is done, the sound of the input function
selected for the MAIN ZONE is played in all zones (the MAIN ZONE, ZONE 2 and ZONE 3).
! There is virtually no delay in the sound.
! Switching of the input for only ZONE 2 or ZONE 3 is disabled, but the volume can be adjusted or muted for the
individual zones.
! This is only valid for ZONE 2 and ZONE 3 connections using the speaker terminals. No sound is output from the
ZONE 2 and ZONE 3 pre-out terminals. Nothing is output from the ZONE 2 and ZONE 3 COMPONENT VIDEO
output and VIDEO output terminals.
! The HDZONE setting does not apply to Multi-ZONE Music.

subwoofer. Select SMALL to send the bass frequencies to the subwoofer.

5.2.4ch or 7.2ch + Speaker B.

LARGE, Speaker Distance for SMALL and LARGE is set to its maximum value.

LARGE, Speaker Distance for SMALL and LARGE is set to its maximum value.

to send bass frequencies to the other speakers or subwoofer. When Dolby Enabled Speaker is used, select

bigger than the maximum value of Speaker Distance when set to SMALL and LARGE. If the value of
Speaker Distance set to Dolby Sp exceeds the maximum value of Speaker Distance for SMALL and
LARGE, Speaker Distance for SMALL and LARGE is set to its maximum value.
