Stereo Zone w/Two Stereo Sub-Zones

This application is ideal for large areas where
independent volume control is needed. Volume is
controlled in a variable zone using keypads or touch
panels. Sources for the entire zone are selected and
controlled from this same keypad or touch panel.
Connect the Fixed Zone Audio Outputs to two imped-
ance matching volume controls, then to two pairs of
speakers. The volume controls will ramp volume
up/down for only the speakers that they are connect-
ed to, giving separate volume control in all areas of
the zone.

If using electronic volume controls, a hand-held IR
remote control can be used for source select and
control in the sub-zone areas. If using rotary volume
controls, all source selection and control must be
done from the keypad or touch panel.
This application has cost-saving advantages. Only
two pairs of amp channels are needed. If using elec-
tronic volume controls, independent volume up/down
is available as well as source selection and control.
In this application, separate source selection is only
available in one area.
