I have 6 lines hooked up with amps at the end of each line, can I hook the music Controller out of my changing led start control? One line 80 foot long going around my patio.

Yes, the controller would be at the beginning of the 1st strip: (controller)-(strip_1)-(amp_1)-(strip_2)-(amp_2)-(strip_3)..(amp_n-1)-(strip_n). The controller and each of the amplifiers need to be connected to their power sources.

I ran a wire from my led switch to the amp that way the amp is only on when my lights are; The lights are a good reminder to shut it off. I'm not sure if the was a light or not on the amp but i know it still pulled power when speakers were "off"

No, it is a mono amp... I suppose you could run them in series rather than separate lines and it should power both.

The controller only controls the power input to the fan. It does not shut fans completely off at the lowest setting, so even if it did control LED power it would never be "off" only dimmer than full power.

My understanding is that you can. They have to all plug into the power source and can not be daisy chained in a line one after the other. I want to use about five of them together and am going to try it soon. LEDwholesalers has not been very helpful answering how to get the color changing module in place so all of them will be the same color in unison. I think more than two would blow the color module but I'm not clear on that. I know you can put two together with a splitter though.

You can use the output of zone 2 as the analog input of the main zone. Put anything you want on zone 2 (except airplay apparently) and change the main zone to the analog inputs. This is a trick we use with automation systems.

If you have more then one RCA output on your deck. The amp if I remember right doesn't have an RCA preamp output, so you can't connect another amp to it.

There isn't a line out or DI output built in, so I'd have to say no, it won't work going direct to your console...unless you run one of the speaker outs (there are two, and you can select 16, 8 or 4 ohms resistance) into an attenuator that also has a DI built in...that way, you would provide the needed resistance for the amp (so you don't kill it) and be able to go direct while cutting the speaker output and keeping the tonal coloring of the amp. Hope this helps!

Yes, you can hook up to fifteen lights. We changed our whole outside to LED lights by Brinkmann. We have fifteen contected and have had no problems for the last five years. Excellent product.

It's only for controlling leds in 3 channel mode . You need a full size dmx controller for the led moving heads

Ok they have a control for RGBW. But it doesn't have music mode. The V+ on the light strip and on the control are 12v DC positive and the control grounds the light to turn it on each color doesn't use some of the volts there all 12v the way it dims and brightens is by controlling the amps 5 amps supplies 300 leds if you want to power more then 300 LEDs you'll need more amps up to the capacity of the control. This one is 10 amp capacity

Hi Barb. It worked for me to connect 2 strips to the same power source and control them with the same controller. I haven't tried with 3 strips yet.

Yes... the reason one uses a unit such as this is so that the amp stays happy with all possible combinations of speakers... if you were to use just on-off switches for the controls, you would have a huge impedance mismatch once you had more than 3-4 speakers on... you still be will be limited by the size of your amp and the power needed for each speaker... if you are using this set up for mainly back ground music ... with volumes under "having to yell at each other" ... any reasonable amp will work...

I am no expert... it comes with amp connection and I just plugged it into controller box and it worked..

This controller does have a "load" connection for lights or any "Load', but the controllers rating is only 7 amp. Hooking up a power inverter and expecting it to never pull 7 amps would mean the load can't be over ~60 watts which seems pretty low for an inverter, so I'd not try it. Also if the inverter is running anything that has any kind of "surge" load, the controllers rating needs to be able to handle that too, so it doesn't sound like the best idea to have an inverter running through a controller like this (I've even seen the inverter alone create a fair arc as I connect up the wires to batteries because of charging capacitors). If you're pretty sure you have a steady load that will be under 20 amps at 12V, then there are controllers rated at that, but I'd not try it with something under ~20 amp rating even for a 100-150 watt inverter (which is almost the smallest size for inverters).

I havent use that cambination but i guess you can because you will use the TX-NR838 to send the signal to the amp and whatever you connect to the amp then its up to how many outs it has

Yes I believe it can. you will be able to run more lights on a longer string since LED'S use less watts.
