Connecting the remote zone (Zone 2)

The DTM-5.3 allows you to connect an additional set of speakers and place them in a different room or an area separated for listening to
music. This other room or area is referred to as the remote zone (Zone 2), while the room in which the DTM-5.3 is referred to as the main
zone. In addition, the IR IN/OUT allows you to control the DTM-5.3 from the remote zone (Zone 2) using the remote controller, even though
the remote zone may be physically separated. The diagram illustrates the proper connections for the remote zone.

The ZONE 2 OUT terminal provides constant output. Connect to
the LINE input of the amplifier (CD, tape, etc.). Adjust the volume
