The multi-zone function allows you to play back separate input
sources in the room where this unit is installed (main zone) and
another room (Zone2).
For example, while you are watching a TV in the living room (main
zone), another person can listen to radio in the bedroom (Zone2).
• Since there are many possible ways to use this unit in a multi-zone configuration,
we recommend that you consult with your nearest authorized Yamaha dealer or
service center about the multi-zone connections that best meet your
requirements.
• Only analog audio signals (including radio, USB and network sources) can be
output to Zone2. To listen to playback sounds of an external device in Zone2, you
need to connect the device to the AUDIO jacks of this unit with a stereo pin cable.
The party mode (p.85) allows you to enjoy main zone sources in Zone2
simultaneously regardless of input audio signal types.
Preparing for Zone2
Connect devices to be set in Zone2 to this unit. The connection
method varies depending on an amplifier to use (this unit or
external amplifier).

Using the internal amplifier of this unit

cables. For details, see “Connecting Zone2 speakers” (p.22).

Caution

• Be careful that the core of the speaker cable does not touch anything or come
into contact with the metal areas of this unit. This may damage this unit or the
speakers. If the speaker cables short circuit, “CHECK SP WIRES” will appear
on the front display when this unit is turned on.
