Connecting Your Zone 3 Speakers
You can enjoy 2-channel stereo playback in Zone 3 and
a different source to those selected for your main room
and Zone 2.
Hookup
• Use an RCA audio cable to connect the AV control-
ler’s ZONE 3 PRE OUT L/R jacks to an analog audio
input on your Zone 3 amp.
• Use an RCA audio cable to connect the AV control-
ler’s ZONE 3 PRE OUT SW jack to the line input on
a powered subwoofer in Zone 3.
• Connect your Zone 3 speakers to the speaker termi-
nals on your Zone 3 amp.
Note:
• With the default settings, the Zone 3 volume must be
set on the Zone 3 amp. If your Zone 3 amp has no vol-
ume control, set the Zone 3 Out setting to Variable so
that you can set the Zone 3 volume on the AV control-
ler (see page 110).
If you’ve connected your Zone 2 or Zone 3 speakers to
an amp with no volume control, set the Zone 2 Out or
Zone 3 Out setting, respectively, to Variable so that you
can set the zone’s volume, balance, and tone on the AV
controller.
