MULTI-ZONE setup
This receiver can power up to two independent systems in separate rooms after you have made the proper MULTI-
ZONE connections.
Different sources can be playing in two zones at the same time or, depending on your needs, the same source
can also be used. The main and sub zone have independent power (the main zone power can be off while sub
zone is on) and the sub zone can be controlled by the remote or front panel controls.
Important
VSX-1027 model cannot connect the TV monitor for sub zone.
Making MULTI-ZONE connections
It is possible to make these connections if you have the speakers for the sub zone (ZONE 2). You will also need a
separate amplifier if you are not using the speaker terminals for the sub zone (For detail, see
using speaker terminals (ZONE 2)
on
page

With the VSX-1127, it is also possible to connect a TV for the sub zone.
