DLA2RF 2 Room Speaker Selector

2. System Design Overview

There are three typical system applications when installing the DLA2RF:

1.Standard A/V or Stereo Receiver

2.Zone 2 Output of an A/V Receiver

3.External Amplifier

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 DLA2RF 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 DLA2RF in order to expand the audio system to additional areas. Figure 2-1shows the “B” speaker outputs of an A/V receiver connected to to the AMPLIFIER INPUT of the DLA2RF. A pair of speakers are connected to the DLA2RF’s Room 1 Speaker Outputs, while an additional pair of speakers is connected to the Room 2 Speaker Outputs. The RF RECEIVER BASE is connected to the ATON PORT. This application allows the A/V receiver’s speakers to play in the main listening area, while two additional pairs of speakers play in other areas of the home-each controlled by the RF remote included with the DLA2RF. 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 DLA2RF.
