Multi-room sound system (MULTIROOM)
If you decide to use the K1 as the basis of a
sound system serving more than one room,
we recommend the following configuration
(see appropriate wiring diagram):
The system is located in the main listening
room (Room A). The speakers connected
to the loudspeaker output
A are in the
same room.
In the adjacent room (Room B) is a pair of
speakers connected to the loudspeaker
output
B. If you want the facility to re-
mote-control the system from Room B,
you will need to install an E 2000 remote
control receiver in this second room, con-
nected to the remote control input RC IN
on the K1.
The system needs to be set to 'VOL A/B'
mode (see amplifier special function
'SETUP').
If you switch on the K1 next time using
the remote control handset, only the
loudspeakers in the user’s room will be
switched on; the other pair of speakers
will stay silent. However, it is still possible
to switch on in the usual way.
If you stay in the neighbouring room you
can only alter the volume in that room;
from the main room you can only adjust
the volume in the main room. These vo-
lume values are independent of each other
over a broad range, but if the volume le-
vels differ widely, a change in value in
one room may affect the volume in the o-
ther.
Note:
The cable from the separate remote control
receiver can be extended up to a total
length of 50 metres.
If you need to extend the cable we rec-
ommend the use of twin-core screened ca-
ble with a conductor capacitance of
150 pF/m or less.
For greater cable lengths you will need to
use lower capacitance cable.
You cannot access the K1 system menus
from the secondary room.
