Zone 2 Source Select Switch
This switch determines which input jacks will be played in Zone 2 (channels 3 and 4).
The two options are:
Same as Zone 1:
Both zones play the same audio. Whatever audio is present at
the Zone 1 RCA input jacks or at the Speaker Level Input will
also be played in Zone 2. This is “internal looping” or
sometimes referred to as a Bus. Channel 3 and 4 level controls
are always independent from Channels 1 and 2 level controls.
Zone 2 In Jacks:
Zone 2 plays audio that is connected to the Zone 2 (Channel
3 and 4) RCA Input Jacks.
Channel Level Controls
Each of the four channels has its own level control. Fully counter-clockwise is all the way off and no
sound will be heard from that channel. Fully clockwise is maximum volume. These controls can be
used to match the volume level of different speakers throughout an installation. If for some reason you
have a high level of background noise (or hiss) heard in the speakers you can also use these Level
controls to cut down on this background noise by slowly turning them down until the noise is gone.
Note:
By adjusting the level controls you can limit the maximum volume in a zone
regardless of how high someone adjusts the preamp or whole-house
controller volume. This is also useful if you use passive wall-mounted
volume controls. By reducing the Zamp Quattro from the maximum output
level you can also reduce the amount of power that will be wasted when
you turn down the wall mounted volume control.
