CONFIGURATION 6 – MULTIPLE LISTENING AREAS IN A ZONE
A single zone of the A4.6Ci MultiZone Preamplifier can be set up to contain more than one listening area (i.e., an adja-
cent living room and dining room). This configuration is chosen when the speakers in the zone are not required to play at
separate volume levels or to be on/off separately.
In Figure 12, a speaker cable is connected to the speaker outputs of Zone 3 and then parallel-connected to the
speakers in both the living room and the dining room. A Solo
™
Master Keypad Module is located in each area.
A Niles IntelliPad
®
Ci Expander
™
is required to connect the two Solo
™
Master Keypad Modules in a single zone.
When connected, all keypads in a zone work in tandem with one another (i.e., all control the same zone and
display the same Zone ON/OFF, Mute, and Input Select Status).
