Using other functions 08 Switching the speaker system If you selected Speaker B in Surround back speaker setting on page 94, 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: • SPA - Sound is output from speaker system A and the same signal is output from the pre-out terminals. • SPB - 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. • SPAB - 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 70. 1 Press the MULTI-ZONE ON/OFF button on the front panel. Each press selects a MULTI-ZONE option: • ZONE 2 ON - Switches the MULTI-ZONE feature on • MULTI ZONE OFF - Switches the MULTIZONE 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. • When the receiver is on,2 make sure that any operations for the sub zone are done while ZONE 2 shows 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 sub zone. For example, ZONE 2 CD-R sends the source connected to the CD-R inputs to the sub room (ZONE 2). • If you select TUNER, you can use the tuner controls to select a preset station (see Saving station presets on page 52 if you're unsure how to do this).3 • VSX-919AH model only: iPod/USB and SIRIUS Radio function cannot be selected for the MULTI-ZONE feature. Note 1 • The subwoofer output depends on the settings you made in Manual speaker setup on page 94. However, if SPB 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 94 output from the surround back pre-out terminals may change. • All speaker systems (except Speaker B connections) are switched off when headphones are connected. 2 If the receiver is in standby, the display is dimmed, and ZONE 2 DVD for example shows in the display. 3 The tuner cannot be tuned to more than one station at a time. Therefore, changing the station in one zone also changes the station in the other zone. Please be careful not to change stations when recording a radio broadcast. 69 En
