Playing Back Videos/Audio In Multiple Rooms (Multi-Zone); Multi-Zone Configuration Examples - Yamaha RX-V3085 Owner's Manual

Playing back videos/audio in multiple rooms (multi-zone)

The multi-zone function allows you to play back different input sources in the room where the
unit is installed (main zone) and in other rooms (Zone2, Zone3 and Zone4).
For example, while you are watching TV in the living room (main zone), another person can
listen to PC music in the study room (Zone2), and another can listen to radio in the guest room
(Zone3) and play DVD in the kitchen (Zone4).
• Audio signals that can be output to each zone vary depending on how you connect the device in each
zone to the unit's output jacks. For details, see "Multi-zone output" (p.182).

Multi-zone configuration examples

Since there are many possible ways to use the unit in a multi-zone configuration, we
recommend that you consult with your nearest authorized Yamaha dealer or service center
about the multi-zone connections that best meet your requirements.
