Switching the speaker terminals
If you selected Speaker B at Speaker system setting on
page 83, you can switch between speakers using the
SPEAKERS button. If you selected Normal(SB/FH),
Normal(SB/FW), Front Bi-Amp or ZONE 2, the button
will simply switch your main speaker terminals on or off.
The options below are for the Speaker B setting only.
1
• Use SPEAKERS on the front panel to select a
speaker system setting.
As mentioned above, if you have selected Normal(SB/
FH) or Normal(SB/FW), the button will simply switch
your main speaker terminal (A) on or off.
Press repeatedly to choose a speaker terminal option:
• SP A – Sound is output from the A-speaker
terminals (up to 7 channels (including surround back
channels), depending on the source).
• SP B – Sound is output from the two speakers
connected to the B-speaker terminals. Multichannel
sources will not be heard.
• SP AB – Sound is output from the A-speaker
terminals (up to 5 channels, depending on the
source), the two speakers connected to the B-
speaker terminals, and the subwoofer. The sound
from the B-speaker terminals will be the same as the
sound from the A-speaker terminals (multichannel
sources will be downmixed to 2 channels).
• SP  (off) – No sound is output from the speakers.
Using the MULTI-ZONE controls
The following steps use the front panel controls to adjust
the sub zone volume and select sources. See MULTI-
ZONE remote controls on page 63.
Important
• The explanations for ZONE 3 below only apply to the
VSX-33.
1 Press MULTI-ZONE ON/OFF on the front panel.
Each press selects a MULTI-ZONE option:
• ZONE 2 ON – Selects your primary (ZONE 2) sub
zone
• ZONE 2&3 ON 2 – Select both sub zones
• ZONE 3 ON 2 – Selects your secondary (ZONE 3) sub
zone
• MULTI ZONE OFF – Switches the MULTI-ZONE
feature off
The MULTI-ZONE indicator lights when the MULTI-ZONE
control has been switched ON.
2 Press MULTI-ZONE CONTROL on the front panel to
select the sub zone(s) you want.
If you selected ZONE 2&3 ON above, you can toggle
between ZONE 2 and ZONE 3.
• When the receiver is on, 3 make sure that any
operations for the sub zone are done while ZONE and
your selected sub zone(s) show in the display. If this
is not showing, the front panel controls affect the
main zone only.
3 Use the INPUT SELECTOR dial to select the source
for the zone you have selected.
For example, ZONE 2 CD-R sends the source connected
to the CD-R inputs to the primary (ZONE 2) sub room.
• If you select TUNER, you can use the tuner controls
to select a preset station (see Saving station presets
on page 45 if you’re unsure how to do this).

MASTER VOLUME dial to adjust the volume for the sub
zone.

CONTROL again to return to the main zone controls.
You can also press MULTI-ZONE ON/OFF on the front
panel to switch off all output to the sub zone(s).

3 If the receiver is in standby, the display is dimmed, and ZONE and your selected sub zone(s) continue to show in the display.

zone. Please be careful not to change stations when recording a radio broadcast.
5 • You won’t be able to switch the main zone off completely unless you’ve switched off the MULTI-ZONE control first.
• If you don’t plan to use the MULTI-ZONE feature for a while, turn off the power in both the sub and main rooms so that this receiver is in
standby.
