In addition to your main listening room, you can also enjoy playback in the other room, or as we call Multi Zone. And,
you can select a different source for each room.

There are two ways you can connect Zone 2 speakers:
1. Connect them directly to the AV receiver.
2. Connect them to an amp in Zone 2.

Connecting Your Zone 2 Speakers Directly
to the AV receiver

This setup allows 7.2-channel playback in your main
room and 2-channel stereo playback in Zone 2, with a
different source in each room. This is called Powered
Zone 2, as the Zone 2 speakers are powered by the AV
receiver. Note that when Powered Zone 2 is turned off,
you can enjoy 9.2-channel playback in your main room.

Hookup
• Connect your Zone 2 speakers to the AV receiver’s

FRONT WIDE/ZONE 2 L/R speaker terminals.

Note:
With this setup, the Zone 2 volume is controlled by the
AV receiver.

Connecting Your Zone 2 Speakers to an
Amp in Zone 2

This setup allows 9.2-channel playback in your main lis-
tening room and 2-channel stereo playback in Zone 2,
with a different source in each room.

Hookup
• Use an RCA audio cable to connect the AV receiver’s

ZONE 2 PRE OUT L/R jacks to an analog audio input
on your Zone 2 amp.

• Connect your Zone 2 speakers to the speaker terminals

on your Zone 2 amp.

Note:
With the default settings, the Zone 2 volume must be set
on the Zone 2 amp. If your Zone 2 amp has no volume
control, set the “Zone2 Out” setting to “Variable” so that
you can set the Zone 2 volume on the AV receiver (see
page 128).

Connecting Zone 2

To use this setup, you must set the “Powered Zone2”
setting to “Act” (see page 127).
