Special considerations when using DTS software
The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. Therefore, if you attempt to send the DTS signal to Zone 2, you will only be able to hear the digital
noise that could damage your loudspeakers.
Due to this characteristic of DTS encoded discs, the following considerations and adjustments need to be made.
For DTS encoded LDs or DVDs
Only 2-channel audio signals may be sent to Zone 2, as follows:
• Laser disc – Set your Laser Disc player's left and right outputs to the analog sound track.
• DVD disc – Use the disc menu to set the DVD player's mixed 2-channel left and right audio outputs to PCM or Dolby Digital.
For DTS encoded compact discs
DO NOT USE the Zone 2 feature with DTS encoded compact discs.

Notes:
• Since there are so many ways to connect and use this unit in a multi-room installation,
we recommend that you consult with a custom installation specialist for the Zone 2
connections which will best meet your requirements.
• Some Yamaha models are able to connect directly to the REMOTE 1 OUT jacks of
this unit. If you own these products, you may not need to use an infrared emitter. Up to
six Yamaha components can be connected as shown.
