RP41AV
A MULTI-ZONE SYSTEM
The following diagram illustrates a typical Multi-Zone system, using the RP41AV.
1. For simplicity, only 4 zones are shown ... many more could be added using the Xantech 796-20 Zone
Expander and more RP41AV's.
2. Using an RP41AV plus a basic power amplifier for each zone, every room in the house can have
individual source selection, volume control and room EQ (with the tone controls) at moderate cost.
3. The audio and video connections from the source components to each RP41AV (not shown), should
be made through distribution amps (such as the Xantech AV-61) to prevent distortion that may be
caused by the loading effects of multiple RP41AV's. Refer to the AV-61 Installation Instructions for
more details.
4. For AC power management, refer to the 680-10 and Gatekeep-IR
TM
Installation Instructions.
