Playing back music in multiple rooms (multi-zone)
The multi-zone function allows you to play back different input sources in the room where the
unit is installed (Main zone) and in another room (Zone2).
For example, while you are watching TV in the living room (Main zone), another person can
listen to radio in the study room (Zone2).

Digital and analog audio sources (including FM/AM radio), and Bluetooth, USB, and network sources can be
output to Zone2. To listen to the playback of an external device in Zone2, you need to connect the device to the
AUDIO jacks (AV 1-2 or AUDIO 1-5 jacks) of the unit. The party mode (p.84) allows you to play back the same audio
output in Main zone as Zone2, whatever the input audio signal type.
Preparing Zone2
