Denon AVR-3802 Multi-Zone? How?

I just want to clarify this b4 I waste my time redoing my wirings.

I was reading the manual, and it says that I can dedicate 2 channels to play different audio than the 5 main channels? Is this true?

Yes, I have my 3802 doing that, works great. It basically uses the 6.1 and 7.1 amps to do stereo on your other zone. I think the only limitation for the other zone input is it can't be a digital source (might want to double-check).

In the 3802 setup menu, verify the multizone is selected instead of 7.1. On the remote, you can hit the 'receiver' button multiple times to get to 'multi', then select the source. When your remote says 'multi', the volume will do the multi volume. Hitting the receiver button again will flip back to 'amp', which is your normal speaker setup.

Hope that helps.

SWEET! Let me tell u want I'll be trying.

I have a karaoke system hooked up to my system. Having Vocopro Mixer/Amp to drive a dedicated Dtech speaker just for Vocal.
Even though the Vocopro amp is rated @ 100x2, I don't really trust it. It can barely drive the 2 speakers.

I'm gonna use the preout of the Vocopro mixer into the Denon and drive the dtech speakers with it and using the vocopro as a dedicated mixer. I'm sure the Denon would sound much cleaner than the Vocopro amp.


So the 2 channels would be stereo/analog anyways. No biggy.
