PLAYBACK

➤ Playing back music in multiple rooms (multi-zone)

The multi-zone function allows you to play back different input
sources in the room where the unit is installed (main zone) and in
another room (Zone2).

For example, while you are watching TV in the living room (main
zone), another person can listen to radio in the study room (Zone2).
