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:

2.
Connect them to an amp in Zone 2.
Connecting Your Zone 2 Speakers Directly

room and 2-channel stereo playback in Zone 2, with a
different source in each room. This is called Powered

receiver. Note that when Powered Zone 2 is turned off,
you can enjoy 7.1-channel playback in your main room.
Hookup
