Activating the Zone 1 Front Speakers

When shipped from the factory, both pairs of the front speakers have
been set to be used in Zone 1.
• To connect the speakers to the FRONT 2/ZONE 2 SPEAKERS

terminals, set the speaker usage correctly. (See “

Setting the

Zone 2/Speakers 2 Usage—ZONE 2/SPEAKER 2” on page 43.)

On the unit ONLY:

When you have connected two pairs of front speakers and placed
them in Zone 1, you can select which to use.

To use the speakers connected to the FRONT
1 SPEAKERS terminals,

press SPEAKERS 1

(inside the front door) so that the speakers 1
indicator lights up on the display. (Make sure
that the speakers 2 indicator is not lit on the display.)

To use the speakers connected to the FRONT 2/ZONE 2
SPEAKERS terminals,

press SPEAKERS 2 (inside the front door)

so that the speakers 2 indicator lights up on the display. (Make sure
that the speakers 1 indicator is not lit on the display.)

To use both sets of the speakers,

press SPEAKERS 1 and

SPEAKERS 2 so that the speakers 1 and 2 indicators light up on the
display.

To use neither set of the speakers,

press SPEAKERS 1 and

SPEAKERS 2 so that the speakers 1 and 2 indicators disappear from
the display.
(“HEADPHONE” appears on the unit’s display.)

Notes:

• Even if both pairs of the front speakers are activated, the speakers

connected to the FRONT 2/ZONE 2 SPEAKERS terminals are
deactivated in the following cases:
– If you select “DVD MULTI” or “EXT 7.1CH” as the source, or
– If you select one of the Surround/THX/DSP modes.

• The SPEAKERS 2 button will not work if “SPEAKER 2” is set to “BI-

AMP OUT” (see page 44).

Listening with headphones only:

Sounds through the front speakers and the subwoofer shut off when
connecting a pair of headphones to the PHONES jack.
(“HEADPHONE” appears on the unit’s display.)

You can enjoy the following sound effects through the headphones:
• If the Surround/THX mode is activated, you can enjoy surround

effect. (For details, see “3D HEADPHONE Mode” on page 57.)

• If a DSP mode is activated, you can enjoy the DSP effect. (For

details, see “HEADPHONE Mode” on page 58.)

CAUTION:

Be sure to turn down the volume before connecting or putting on
headphones, as high volume can damage both the headphones and
your hearing.

Selecting the Analog or Digital Input
Mode

When you have connected digital source components using the
digital terminals (see pages 12 and 16), you need to select the digital
input mode.

Before you start, remember...

•

The digital input (DIGITAL IN) terminal setting should be
properly done (see “

Setting the Digital Input/Output

Terminals—DIGITAL IN/OUT” on page 42).

• The digital input can be used for the Zone 1 sources. The analog

input is always selected as the Zone 2 source without respect to
this setting.

1. Press one of the source selecting buttons (DVD,

VCR 1, TV/DBS, VIDEO, CD, CDR, or TAPE/
MD*) for which you want to change the input
mode.

Note:

If “TAPE” has been assigned to the TAPE/MD button, it does not
work in this step.
To change the source name, see “Changing the Source Name”
on page 27.

2. Press INPUT MODE (or ANALOG/DIGITAL

INPUT) to change the input mode.

• Each time you press the button, the input mode changes as
