MULTIZONE CONFIGURATION
ADDING A 2ND ZONE
In addition to being a highly evolved Home Theater A/V Surround Receiver, the M80 can also be used as a two-zone A/V System
Controller. This allows the M80 to feed audio and video to the Home Theater (Main Room) and simultaneously or independently
distribute audio and video to a second room (Zone 2). The source in Zone 2 can be the same source that is playing in the Main
Room or it can be a different source. Zone 2 is controlled with the M80 Zone 2 Remote Control via the M80 Front Panel IR Sensor,
an optional multizone IR control system that connects to the M80 Rear Panel or the Zone 2 OSD that get displayed on the Main
Room Video Display. The speakers for Zone 2 can be connected to the Surround Back speaker terminals on the M80
(Diagram

or can be driven by a dedicated audio amplifier connected to the Zone 2 OUT or Zone 2 PRE-OUT jacks on the M80 Rear
Panel. The Video Display for Zone 2 is fed from either the Zone 2 Composite or S-Video jacks on the M80 Rear Panel.
Note 1:
All sources that are going to be played in Zone 2 must include analog line level audio and either composite or S-Video
connections to the M80 Source Inputs. Digital audio inputs are not down-converted to analog audio or made available to the
Zone 2 audio outputs. HDMI does not get down-converted and is not available to the Zone 2 outputs. The analog audio and com-
posite or S-Video connections must be selected in the Source Setup as inputs for any source to be played in Zone 2.
Note 2:
Unless using an external amplifier for Zone 2 audio, the Surround Back speakers must be configured for Zone 2 in the OSD
Menu under:
Setup Menu/Amplifier Setup
.
Zone 2 Wiring
The Zone 2 application described in this section, requires that one pair of speaker wires be run from the M80 location to each
speaker in Zone 2. An appropriate shielded video cable (RG6) for composite video or S-Video cable for S-Video will also need to be
run from the M80 to the Zone 2 Video Display location, if video is being fed to Zone 2. Pull 22AWG/2 pair shielded audio cable for
line level audio from the M80 to the Zone 2 Video Display if external speakers are not practical or desirable in Zone 2.
Note: If feeding composite and S-Video connected sources to Zone 2, pull RG6 and S-Video cable. The M80 does not convert com-
posite source inputs to Zone 2 S-Video OUT or S-Video source inputs to Zone 2 composite video OUT.
In new construction, the wires should be pulled before the drywall is installed. In retro-fit applications, (existing construction)
the wires will need to be pulled through the walls and holes will need to be cut in the drywall for termination and connection. (If
using inwall or inceiling speakers, holes will need to be cut in the drywall for the speakers as well.) It is highly recommended that
an audio/video installation professional be hired to do this type of work. Contact the retailer that the M80 was purchased from for
information on professional installation.
