ATON DLA2, DLA4, DLA6 manual Standard Audio/Video or Stereo Receiver

DLA2/4/6 Speaker Level Audio Router

Standard Audio/Video or Stereo Receiver

Most A/V Receivers and Stereo Receivers have two sets of Main Speaker Outputs (typically labelled “A” and “B”. While it is certainly possible to connect the DLA2/4/6 to the “A” outputs, it is much more useful to connect the “A” outputs to the main speakers (stereo or surround) in the room in which the receiver is located and connect the “B” outputs to the DLA2/4/6 in order to expand the audio system to additional areas. Figure 2-2shows the “B” speaker outputs

of an A/V receiver connected to to the AMPLIFIER INPUT of the DLA2. A pair of speakers are connected to the DLA2’s Room 1 Speaker Outputs, while an additional pair of speakers is con- nected to the Room 2 Speaker Outputs. In this scenario, the A/V receiver’s speakers play in the main listening area, while two additional pairs of speakers play in other areas of the home. This is a single-source application: all areas of the house will play the same audio source, but with separately controlled volume.

Note: For best audio quality, ATON recommends that Surround Sound and/or DSP modes (Concert, Hall, Jazz, etc.) be disabled prior to playing audio through the DLA2/4/6.
