Six-Source Six-Zone

Music Distribution Amplifier

The MDS-6 is a six source, six zone music distribution amplifier that will fill your home with

the highest quality music of any system being built today. It offers unparalleled features

in a price range that is very affordable.

It features high quality 40 watt RMS Bi-Polar amplifiers per zone, with individual selection

and control of each source from each zone. Line outputs off of each zone easily allow

additional amplifiers or sub-woofer systems. With the MDS-6 you have independent IR

control of all of your audio sources from any room in the house. It also has an integrated

interface which allows for whole house paging in conjunction with your phone system, and

built-in front and back door chimes. A party mode allows you to select music source and

volume for all zones from one location.

  

A built-in IR routing system allows you to operate

CD players, satellite receivers, or any other equipment independently even though the

same manufacturer makes them and they respond to the same IR codes. Your MDS-6

system may be controlled by the MCS-1, single gang controller, or the MCS-2 dual gang,

programmable Controller for complete IR control of your audio equipment from any room

of your house.

Innovative, rugged and reliable, sleek and unobtrusive, the MDS-6 represents the finest,

uncompromising American engineering and design utilizing the highest quality components

and manufacturing available, all at a price you can live with.
