Connecting a 5.1 and Second Zone System

Connection 5 main channels plus a second (2 channel) zone

This configuration shows the LPA-1 driving five full range channels and using channels

6 and 7 for a second zone that is fed from the Zone 2 preamp output of the main

preamplfier/processor. This type of configuration is ideal for enthusiasts have a 5.1

channel theater system that already has a powered subwoofer and wish to use the

remaining two channels to drive speakers elsewhere in the home.

Please note that if the

preamplifier/processor does

not provide a separate volume

control capability for the Zone

2 output, or if it is simply

“split” from the front left and

right channels, an impedance

matching volume control

will be necessary to install

between the LPA-1 and the

speakers in the Zone 2
