Different pieces of music heard by plural listeners (2-ZONE function)

About the 2-ZONE function
The 2-ZONE function is a function that outputs
separate sounds from the MAIN zone and SUB
zone by simultaneously operating two sources
in the one center unit, thereby allowing plural lis-
teners to enjoy separate music sources.
This unit can control its internal sources (radio,
CD, MP3, etc.) to play back them, and further,
can simultaneously play back sources from ex-
ternal equipment connected via CeNET (for in-
stance, CD changers etc.).
The sources of the MAIN zone are played back
from the speakers of the vehicle side, and those
of the SUB zone are from the headphone sys-
tems (WH104/WH204).
Notes:
• Except AUX, the MAIN and SUB zones cannot si-
multaneously use sources inside this unit.
Also, external equipment connected via CeNET
cannot simultaneously be used.
• The TV mode while the 2-ZONE function is tuned
on is forced to change to "VTR playback."
• The ISR function cannot be operated when the 2-
ZONE function is turned on.
• The Audio mode and ADF function cannot be set
for the sources of the SUB zone.
• If any of following external equipment is con-
nected, this function is disenabled.
• 5.1 channel surround decoder (DVH920/
DVH940)
