Zone 4 is equipped with two types of pre-amp lineouts for use with an additional amplifier. This can be dedicated to an outdoor zone or large living area that would benefit from more than one pair of speakers. NuVo manufactures a 200-watt stereo amplifier specifically designed for this purpose, called the P2100, although any audio amplifier can be used with the lineouts.

The fixed lineout can be used for zones where it is more appropriate to have a separate volume control from the NuVo keypad for the external amplifier, fig. 10. A good example of this use would be an outdoor zone that is being used in conjunction with zone 4.
