Switching the speaker terminals

If you selected Normal(SB/FH), Normal(SB/FW) or Speaker B at Speaker system setting on page 84, you can

switch between speakers using the SPEAKERS button. If you selected Front Bi-Amp or ZONE 2, the button will

simply switch your main speaker terminals on or off.

2 Use SPEAKERS to select a speaker system setting.

As mentioned above, if you have selected Front Bi-Amp or ZONE 2, the button will simply switch your main

speaker terminal (A) on or off.

Press repeatedly to choose a speaker terminal option:

When you select Normal(SB/FH), you can select from:

! SP: SB/FH ON – Surround back or front height channels are added to the front, center and surround chan-

nels (maximum 5 channels) and a maximum of 7 channels are output. The surround back and front height

channels are switched automatically according to the audio input signal.

! SP: SB ON – Surround back channels are added to the front, center and surround channels (maximum 5

channels) and a maximum of 7 channels are output.

! SP: FH ON – Front height channels are added to the front, center and surround channels (maximum 5 chan-

nels) and a maximum of 7 channels are output.

! SP: OFF – No sound is output from the speakers.

When you select Normal(SB/FW), you can select from:

! SP: SB/FW ON – Surround back or front wide channels are added to the front, center and surround channels

(maximum 5 channels) and a maximum of 7 channels are output. The surround back and front wide channels

are switched automatically according to the audio input signal.

! SP: SB ON – Surround back channels are added to the front, center and surround channels (maximum 5

channels) and a maximum of 7 channels are output.

! SP: FW ON – Front wide channels are added to the front, center and surround channels (maximum 5 chan-

nels) and a maximum of 7 channels are output.

! SP: OFF – No sound is output from the speakers.

When you select Speaker B, you can select from:

! SP: A ON – Sound is output from the A-speaker terminals (up to 7 channels (including surround back chan-

nels), depending on the source).

! SP: B ON – Sound is output from the two speakers connected to the B-speaker terminals. Multichannel

sources will not be heard.

! SP: A+B ON – Sound is output from the A-speaker terminals (up to 5 channels, depending on the source), the

two speakers connected to the B-speaker terminals, and the subwoofer. The sound from the B-speaker termi-

nals will be the same as the sound from the A-speaker terminals (multichannel sources will be downmixed to

2 channels).

! SP: OFF – No sound is output from the speakers.

Notes

! The subwoofer output depends on the settings you made in Manual speaker setup on page 84. However, if SP:

B ON is selected above, no sound is heard from the subwoofer (the LFE channel is not downmixed).

! All speaker systems (except Speaker B connections) are switched off when headphones are connected.

Using the MULTI-ZONE controls

The following steps use the front panel controls to adjust the sub zone volume and select sources. See ZONE 2

remote controls and HDZONE remote controls on page 68.

Important

! The settings must be change at ZONE Setup in order to use the HDZONE function (page 88).

1 Press MULTI-ZONE ON/OFF on the front panel.

Each press selects a MULTI-ZONE option:

! ZONE 2 ON – Turns on the MULTI-ZONE feature for ZONE 2.

! Z2&HDZONE ON – Turns on the MULTI-ZONE feature for ZONE 2 and the HDZONE.

! HDZONE ON – Turns on the MULTI-ZONE feature for the HDZONE.

! MULTI ZONE OFF – Switches the MULTI-ZONE feature off

The MULTI-ZONE indicator lights when the MULTI-ZONE control has been switched ON.

2 Press MULTI-ZONE CONTROL on the front panel to select the sub zone(s) you want.

! When the receiver is on, make sure that any operations for the sub zone are done while ZONE and your

selected sub zone(s) show in the display. If this is not showing, the front panel controls affect the main zone

only.

If the receiver is in standby, the display is dimmed, and ZONE and your selected sub zone(s) continue to show

in the display.

3 Use the INPUT SELECTOR dial to select the source for the sub zone.

For example, ZONE 2 DVD sends the source connected to the DVD inputs to the sub room (ZONE 2).

! If you select TUNER, you can use the tuner controls to select a preset station (see Saving station presets

on page 44 if you’re unsure how to do this). The tuner cannot be tuned to more than one station at a time.

Therefore, changing the station in one zone also changes the station in the other zone. Please be careful not

to change stations when recording a radio broadcast.

4 When Speaker System is set to ZONE 2, use the MASTER VOLUME dial to adjust the volume

for the sub zone.

In case of VSX-1123

! Even if Speaker System is not set to ZONE 2, the volume of the sound being output from the AUDIO ZONE 2

OUT terminals can be adjusted. Adjust the volume as desired using the MASTER VOLUME dial.

! When Speaker System is set to anything other than ZONE 2, the volume output from the receiver’s AUDIO

ZONE 2 OUT terminals can be fixed to –40 dB or 0 dB and the volume can be adjusted from the connected

amplifier. If you want to adjust the volume from the connected amplifier, see ZONE Setup on page 88.

5 When you’re finished, press MULTI-ZONE CONTROL again to return to the main zone

controls.

You can also press MULTI-ZONE ON/OFF on the front panel to switch off all output to the sub zone.

! You won’t be able to switch the main zone off completely unless you’ve switched off the MULTI-ZONE control

first.

! If you don’t plan to use the MULTI-ZONE feature for a while, turn off the power in both the sub and main

rooms so that this receiver is in standby.
