Speaker Outputs
The Quick Lock connectors on the AH66T accept 18 to 16 AWG speaker wires. These wires can be directly connected to speakers located throughout the home, or, for a professional appearance, can be connected to speaker wall plates using bare leads or banana plugs.
Note: Because the Speaker Outputs are always VARIABLE, it is NOT RECOMMENDED to use Volume Controls with the AH66T’s internal amplifier. Unanticipated volume functionality may result. Subzones requiring the use of Volume Controls should utilize an external amplifier connected to the AH66T’s ZONE PREAMP OUTPUTS. The ZONE PREAMP OUTPUTS should be programmed for FIXED OUTPUT in the ATON configuration software.
