 A zone can be one room or many rooms—it’s up to you. It makes entertaining easy.

No matter which room your guests are in, the music surrounds them.

Each zone has full access to the equipment through keypad interfaces. You and your family can instantly hear music, sports, CDs, and newscasts independently at the same time. While gardening in the backyard, you can select music from the porch’s convenient keypad. At the same time, your family is listening to their choice of audio in other rooms and zones.
