The ZONE2 and ZONE3 audio signals are output from the AVR-
4810CI’s SURR BACK/AMP ASSIGN speaker terminals using the
amplifier assignment function.
The source selected for ZONE2 is also output from the recording
output connectors.
NOTE
We recommend using high quality pin-plug cables for audio
connections in order to prevent noise.
When the input source to which the digital input connectors
(OPTICAL/COAXIAL) are assigned is selected in ZONE2 or ZONE3,
playback is only possible if the digital signal being input is in PCM
(2-channel) format.
It is not possible to play the digital audio signals input from the HDMI
or DENON LINK terminals in ZONE2 and ZONE3.
When certain digital signals are being input, noise may be output
from the ZONE2 and ZONE3 audio output connectors.
In ZONE4, it is not possible to select “XM”, “HD Radio”, or sources
with no digital input signals (“TUNER”, “PHONO”, “iPod”, etc.).
Also be sure to read the operating instructions of the connected
devices.
