multi-zone
feature allows you to set this unit to reproduce separate input sources in the main zone and the second zone (Zone2
) and
third zone (
Zone3). You can control this unit from the second zone or third zone using the supplied remote control.

Enjoying the contents in another room
Only analog signal can be sent to Zone2 or Zone3. If you want to output sound from Zone2 or
Zone3, connect an external component to AV1-4, AUDIO1-4 or V-AUX by analog connection. For
example, if you want to output sound from an HDMI DVD player in Zone2, you must connect the
component to this unit by both HDMI and analog connections.
Since there are many possible ways to connect and 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.
