Yamaha RX-V1065 - Manual (Page 64)

Using multi-zone configuration
This unit allows you to configure a multi-zone audio system. This feature allows you to set this unit to reproduce separate
input sources in the main zone and the second zone (Zone2). You can control this unit from the second zone using the
supplied remote control.
Only analog signal can be sent to the second zone. If you want to output sounds to Zone2, connect an external
component to the AV5-6, AUDIO 1 -2 or VIDEO AUX (AUDIO) jacks (by analog connection). For example, if you
want to output sound from an HDMI DVD player to the second zone, you must connect the HDMI DVD player to this
unit by both HDMI and analog connections.
Using the internal amplifier of this unit
You need the following additional equipment to use the
multi-zone functions of this unit:
• An infrared signal receiver in the second zone.
• An infrared signal emitter in the main zone. This emitter
transmits infrared signals from the remote control to a
CD player or a DVD player, etc. in the main zone via
the infrared signal receiver in the second zone.
• An amplifier and speakers in the second zone.
• Since there are many possible ways to conned and use this unit in a
iniilli-zone configLiralion. we recommend that you consult with your
nearest aulhorized Yamaha dealer or service center about the Zone2
connections that best meet your rcc|uircments.
• Some Yamaha models can be directly connected to the REMOTE jacks
of this unit. You may not need use an infrared signal emitter for these
products. Up to 6 components can be connected using monaural analog
mini cables or via an IR Hashers. Eor details about connections, see
“Transmitting/rcceiving remote control signals" (page 17 ).

Important safety notice
The EXTRA SP terminals of this unit should not be
connected to a Passive Loudspeaker Selector Box or
more than one loudspeaker per channel.
Connection to a Passive Loudspeaker Selector Box or
multiple speakers per channel could create an
abnormally low impedance load resulting in amplifier
damage. See this owner’s manual for correct usage.
Compliance with minimum speaker impedance
information for all channels must be maintained at all
times. This information is found on the back panel of
your unit.
Connect the speakers in the second zone to the EXTRA
SP terminals and then set “Extra Speaker Assignment” to
“Zone2” (page 56).
