APPLICATIONS

ADDING PREAMPS TO CREATE MORE LISTENING ZONES

In the ultimate MultiZone system, you connect individual stereo preamplifiers (or a single component multi-zone/multi-source preamplifier) to the BusMatrix™ inputs of SI-1650. These independent input signals are then routed to the appropriate amplifier channels via the IP Configuration and Setup Tool creating completely independent listening zones.

MultiZone systems enable listeners located in the separate zones to simultaneously listen to different source components as shown in Figure 6. This example also has the SI-1650’s High/Low Cut output feature setup to provide satellite speaker amplification (Low Cut from 50 watt channels 13 and 14) and subwoofer amplification (High Cut from 100 watt channel 15) for zone 7.
