A2 INSTALLATION MANUAL
Multi-Room
Stereo Sub-Zones
ELAN’s S66A/S86A Integrated Multi-Room Controllers have built-in amplification for six stereo zones as well as six
sets of preamp outputs for the addition of sub-zones. The A2 is ideally suited to amplify outdoor subzones using
rotary or electronic volume controls if separate volume up/down functionality is desired in the sub-zones as shown
in the S66A example below.
