Connecting your equipment
MULTI-ZONE setup
This receiver can power up to two independent systems in separate rooms after you have made the proper MULTI-
ZONE connections.
Different sources can be playing in two zones at the same time or, depending on your needs, the same source
can also be used. The main and sub zone have independent power (the main zone power can be off while sub
zone is on) and the sub zone can be controlled by the remote or front panel controls.
Making MULTI-ZONE connections
It is possible to make these connections if you have the speakers for the sub zone (ZONE 2). You will also need a
separate amplifier if you are not using the speaker terminals for the sub zone (For detail, see MULTI-ZONE setup
using speaker terminals (ZONE 2) on page 30).
With the VSX-1123, it is also possible to connect a TV for the sub zone.
Also, if the separate receiver in the sub zone has an HDMI input terminal, this unit’s HDMI input can be played as
HDZONE.
Here are two primary sub zone setups possible with this system. Choose whichever works best for you.
Important
! The settings must be change at ZONE Setup in order to use the HDZONE function (page 88).
! VSX-923 model cannot connect the TV monitor for sub zone.

The following table shows the signals that can be output to ZONE 2 and HDZONE:
