T+A Elektroakustik K1 CD-RECEIVER operating instructions Multi-roomsound system MULTIROOM

Multi-room sound system (MULTIROOM)

If you decide to use the K1 as the basis of a sound system serving more than one room, we recommend the following configuration (see appropriate wiring diagram):

•The system is located in the main listening room (Room A). The speakers connected to the loudspeaker output  A are in the same room.

•In the adjacent room (Room B) is a pair of speakers connected to the loudspeaker output  B. If you want the facility to re- mote-control the system from Room B, you will need to install an E 2000 remote control receiver in this second room, con- nected to the remote control input RC IN on the K1.

•The system needs to be set to 'VOL A/B' mode (see amplifier special function 'SETUP').

•If you switch on the K1 next time using the remote control handset, only the loudspeakers in the user’s room will be switched on; the other pair of speakers will stay silent. However, it is still possible to switch on in the usual way.

•If you stay in the neighbouring room you can only alter the volume in that room; from the main room you can only adjust the volume in the main room. These vo- lume values are independent of each other over a broad range, but if the volume le- vels differ widely, a change in value in one room may affect the volume in the o- ther.

Note:

The cable from the separate remote control receiver can be extended up to a total length of 50 metres.

If you need to extend the cable we rec- ommend the use of twin-core screened ca- ble with a conductor capacitance of 150 pF/m or less.

For greater cable lengths you will need to use lower capacitance cable.

You cannot access the K1 system menus from the secondary room.
