While performing playback in the main room (ZONE A), you can enjoy the audio of the same source in the separate room (ZONE B) at the same time.

Press ZONE A/B to select an audio output destination.

ZONE A: Outputs audio only to the main room (ZONE A). "A" on the display of the main unit lights up.
ZONE B: Outputs audio only to the separate room (ZONE B). "B" on the display of the main unit lights up.
ZONE A+B: Outputs audio to both the main room (ZONE A) and separate room (ZONE B). "A" and "B" on the display of the main unit light up.
Start play on the AV component.
If the unit is connected to the pre-main amplifier in the separate room, adjust the volume on the pre-main amplifier. If the unit is connected to the power amplifier or ZONE speaker in the separate room, adjust the volume on the remote controller.

When connecting the power amplifier, set "Zone B Output Level" to "Variable" for "Speaker Setup" in the Initial Setup section. When setting "Zone B Output Level" from the Setup menu, press on the remote controller, and set "2. Speaker" - "Configuration" - "Zone B Output Level" to "Variable". If it is not set, a large volume is output and the power amplifier, speakers, etc. may be damaged.

If "ZONE A+B" is selected as an audio output destination, you can select only the "Stereo" listening mode for the main room (ZONE A) when using the 2.1ch speaker layout. When using a speaker layout of 3.1ch or more, you can select only the "AllCh Stereo" listening mode.
