Switching the speaker system

If you selected

Speaker B in Surround back speaker

setting on page 121, three speaker system settings are
possible using

SPEAKERS. If you selected Normal, Front

Bi-Amp or ZONE 2, the button will simply switch your
main speaker system 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, the

button will simply switch your main speaker system (A)
on or off.

Press repeatedly to choose a speaker system option:

SP

A – Sound is output from speaker system A and

the same signal is output from the pre-out terminals.

SP

B – Sound is output from the two speakers

connected to speaker system B. Multichannel
sources will not be heard. The same signal is output
from the surround back channel pre-out terminals.

SP

AB – Sound is output from speaker system A (up

to 5 channels, depending on the source), the two
speakers in speaker system B, and the subwoofer.
The sound from speaker system B will be the same as
the sound from speaker system A (multichannel
sources will be downmixed to 2 channels).

SP

 (off) – No sound is output from the speakers. The

same sound is output from the pre-out terminals
(including from your subwoofer, if connected) as
when selecting speaker system A (above).

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 89.

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 – Select both sub zones

ZONE 3 ON – 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,

2

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 55 if you’re unsure how to do this).

e.This setting is only valid for component outputs.
f. This setting is not valid for HDMI outputs.
g.This setting is not displayed for component inputs.

Note

1 • The subwoofer output depends on the settings you made in

Manual speaker setup on page 121. However, if

SP

B is selected above, no sound

is heard from the subwoofer (the LFE channel is not downmixed).
• Depending on the settings in

Surround back speaker setting on page 121 output from the surround back pre-out terminals may change.

• All speaker systems (except

Speaker B connections) are switched off when headphones are connected.
