Connecting an Integrated Amplier (ZONE 2)
You can enjoy 2 ch audio in the separate room (ZONE 2) while performing 
playback in the main room (where this unit is located). Use an analog audio 
cable to connect the ZONE 2 PRE/LINE OUT jacks on this unit to the input jack 
on an integrated amplier in the separate room.
•  To output audio from an externally connected AV component to ZONE 2, 
connect it to any of HDMI IN1 to IN3 jacks. If the AV component is not 
equipped with an HDMI jack, use a digital coaxial cable, digital optical 
cable or analog audio cable. Also, the audio from externally connected AV 
components can be output to ZONE 2 only when the audio is analog or 2 ch 
PCM signal. When the AV component is connected to this unit with a digital 
coaxial cable or digital optical cable, change the audio output of the AV 
component to the PCM output.
Setup
•  Settings are required to output audio to ZONE 2. Press   on the remote 
controller, and set "Speaker" - "Conguration" - "Zone 2 Preout" ( →p134) to 
"Zone 2".
•  When connecting an integrated amplier that does not have a volume control, 
set "Multi Zone" - "Zone 2" - "Output Level" ( →p158) to "Variable" (Default 
Value: Fixed) on the Setup menu. If you do not set this, the volume output 
will be very loud and there is a danger of damage to the integrated amplier, 
speakers, etc. When connecting an integrated amplier that has a volume 
control, leave this as "Fixed".
