16 CHANNEL, FULLY CONFIGURABLE POWER AMPLIFIERS
APPLICATIONS
USING A DUAL-ZONE RECEIVER FOR TWO LISTENING ZONES
Most of today’s Audio Video Receivers include a second zone preamplifier output
to create a second listening zone. Using this output with the SI-1650 BusMatrix™
input provides amplification for multiple rooms within a second listening zone as
shown in Figure 4.
In addition, in this example high power is supplied to the patio stereo speakers by
configuring channel 13 for high power (left speaker) and configuring channel 15
for high power (right speaker).
