2 When you connect a CD player or such other player without HDMI
output jack, connect it to the analog audio input jacks of the unit.
Multi-zone output is not possible if the connection is only with digital
optical cable or digital coaxial cable. In case of analog connection,
analog audio output setting may be necessary on the player.
As for HDMI input and analog audio input, it is possible
to play the same source or different sources in the main
room and separate room.
As for the "NET" and "USB", you cannot select different
audio sources for the main room and separate room. For
example, if "NET" has been selected in the main room
and then "USB" is selected as playback source in the
separate room, the input in the main room will change to
"USB" accordingly.
When listening to AM/FM broadcasting, you cannot
select different stations for the main room and separate
room. Therefore broadcasting of the same station will be
heard in the both rooms.
If you play the same HDMI connected player for the main
room and a separate room, the sound field processing
for 2 ch PCM signals will be made in a separate room.
