Imagine listening to a CD in the home office, as your kids listen to the radio in the patio, while your spouse listens to DSS Audio in the family room, all with one A/V system! Setting it up is easy with this incredible system that lets you listen to four audio sources (CD player, stereo tuner, statellite receiver, cassette, etc.) in six different rooms. Elegant wall-mounted controllers give you full access control of volume and selection in each room at the touch of a button!
The system contains six individual stereo amplifiers, offering 12 channels of high-current, 20-watts-per-channel amplification — enough to power six sets of speakers. Four audio source inputs are provided for a CD player, tape player, stereo tuner and an auxiliary input.
Six included wall-mounted volume controls provide basic, independent control of volume and source selection from each room. But for the ultimate in control, try upgrading to some of the full-featured Decora-style keypads for full-access, remote control of your system!
The system is as easy to hook up as it is to operate. Simply connect the Decora-style keypads to the controller using Cat. 5 cable for lengths up to 100 ft, or 8-conductor shielded cable (#8484) for runs up to 200 ft. Order yours today and in no time, you'll be enjoying your favorite tunes anywhere in your home!

Controlling Keypad (#8275301)
Need a basic, operational keypad that gives you control over source input, room volume, on/off and also receives IR source commands? These simple and elegant keypads will do the trick! These are the same as the models shipped with your multi-source/multi-room audio controller (#827520 or #827530). Four green LEDs provide visual confirmation of the selected source. A red LED confirms an IR command from a hand-held remote.
Programmable Learning Keypad (#8275302)
Add the Programmable Learning Keypad to the standard keypads included with your multi-source/multi-room audio controller (#827530 or #827520). This keypad connects to the standard keypads using a 16-pin ribbon cable connected to the backside. It lets you program up to 12 functions for each of four different audio components, so you can stop and start a playing CD, change tracks, and more. Install in any room where you want direct control of your audio components.
IR Controlled Keypad (#8275303)
The LCD display on the keypad lets you visually identify the source and volume level. It offers IR remote control of all room and source functions, and allows you to add the Speaker Relay Module (#8275304), so you can share your room speakers with both a local stereo and the whole-home audio system. Designed to work with the multi-source/multi-room audio controller (#827530 or #827520).
Numeric Source Control Keypad (#8275104)
Add the Numeric Source Control Keypad to the IR Controlled Keypad (#8275303) and you can numerically control all of your audio equipment. Great for selecting certain tracks from a CD when you can't tell which track is currently playing, or for large disc changers (100 discs or more) where it is impractical to scroll through individual discs to get to the one you want to hear. Offers either green or amber backlighting, with adjustable brightness. Plugs directly into the IR Controlled Keypad (#8275303), and requires a dual-gang installation. A triple-gang installation is required when installing both the Direct Source Control (#8275103) and the Numeric Source Control (#8275104) with one of the compatible keypads.
Speaker Relay Module (#8275304)
Want to use your home theater speakers for movie watching AND for whole-house audio purposes? Then supplement your system with this Speaker Relay Module. It allows you to automatically switch to whole-house audio in a zone containing existing audio equipment, like the front speakers of a home theater system for example. Works with your multi-source/multi-room audio controller (#827530 or #827520) and requires the LCD IR-Controlled Keypad (#8275303).
