6. Multi-zone Connection-2 (ZONE
SPEAKER)
You can enjoy 2ch audio in the separate room by, for example,
playing a Blu-ray Disc player in the main room (where this unit is
located) and listening to internet radio through the speakers in
the separate room (ZONE 2). You can connect up to two speaker
systems and output the same audio. To connect one speaker
system, use the ZONE 2A jacks, and to connect two speaker systems,
use the ZONE 2B jacks in addition to the ZONE 2A jacks. When
connecting two speaker systems, all speakers to be connected to the
ZONE 2A/B jacks must have an impedance of 8 to 16 Ω.
0 You cannot use ZONE SPEAKER if you have connected
the front speakers using Bi-Amping connection.
0 Please note that it is not possible to connect to the ZONE
2B jacks when surround back speakers or height
speakers are connected.
0 No sound is played from the surround back speakers or the
height speakers when playing audio from ZONE SPEAKER.
Connections with an AV component
When outputting the audio of an externally connected AV
component to ZONE 2, you need to connect using a digital
coaxial cable, digital optical cable, or analog audio cable.
Setup
0 Settings are required in Initial Setup, "4. Multi
Zone Setup" (P24) to enjoy this feature.
0 To use the ZONE 2A+B output, set "Zone
Speaker" in "1. AccuEQ Room Calibration" (P23)
in Initial Setup to "Zone 2A + B".
0 The audio from externally connected AV
components can only be played in ZONE 2 when
the audio is analog or 2ch PCM audio. If you have
connected to this unit with a digital coaxial cable
or digital optical cable, it may be necessary to
change the audio output of the AV component to
PCM output.
