Could I run 5 surround sound speakers from my living room plus 4-6 other speakers throughout the house through this selector and my receiver?

Yes surround speakers through the receiver and the rest through the selecter but your receiver must be a dual zone receiver

Yes, but no. This unit takes the signal from your source (receiver) and let's you send that signal to 6 sets of speakers.

You could run that many speakers at the same time if you use the impedance button; which reduces the quality of sound. I run two speakers per zone (total of 12....but I do not run all zones at the same time). But with that said, there are 6 zones and I run 5 HIGH quality speakers at any given time on 3 zones without using the impedance button. The product suited my needs as expected, as I have speakers wired throughout my whole house.

Asking a question that is dependent on the impedance of the speakers that is the number of ohms speakers that you're sending the signal to you may want to download the Niles instruction book and it has a very good description of what Canon can't be done offhand I don't think the surround sound speaker system would count as one set of speakers

If you are talking about using the Zone 2 on your receiver to power 4-6 other speakers you could but it would not be the best thing to do. one thing you have to make sure is that your speakers all have the same Ohm rating and that your receiver is capable with that that certain resistance. You would probably be safe with running 2 pairs of speakers but I would definitely not do 3 pairs. I would look into a 4 zone amplifier for that. Hope this helps!

Yes sir you can...you can play up to 6 sets of speakers like I have. 3 different pairs on in my yard, 1 pair in my living room, 1 pair in my family room and the last pair in my basement. Hope it helps...Bill

I don't think so. You'd use the switch if you wanted to selectively drive 2 PAIRS of speakers from the 2nd zone. The switch would allow you to drive Pair A or Pair B or A+B.

Yes you can - There are buttons for 4 sets of speakers A,B,C and D - I have the unit connected to my inside speakers (A) and my deck speakers(D) ... usually I have both A and D selected ... but if we're just on the deck I select just D and if we're inside I just select A - this is a really solid unit and I'm more than pleased - and believe it or not I don't like Radio Shack ... Go for it. And by the way there is no noticeable loss of power when both selected - but if there was I'djust turn the volume up.

Yes you can. The speakers are individual units so if you needed more you could buy more. For example, I have a 5.1 setup connected to a Dolby Digital 7.1 receiver to which I also have connected two 12" Polk Audio subwoofers. I hope this helps!

The Speaker A and B buttons on the front individually turn on or off either set of speakers. You can turn both A and B on at the same time for a setup you describe, although it won't be actual surround, as this is a stereo receiver that only supports left/right, not 5.1 or 7.1 surround

Yes, that is what I use it for. My setup is from Raspberry Pi HDMI Out to AGPTek, then from AGPTek to my TV and APGTek to my receiver. This allows me to have 5.1 surround sound on my receiver.

It should work just fine. The setup program will optimize the receiver based on the speakers hooked up and the type and quality of the speakers. The receiver is really designed as a home theater system so there will likely be lots of features that you will not utilize with your setup!

I think you will find you can connect up more than one set of speakers anyway on the same ampie speakers 1 and 2 you can lay speakers in another room to play from that amplifier just switch over on the remote control

Yesss but you wont get the full surround sound without 5 speaker and a good receiver. These speakers can handle a lot of power and sound great .. I think you would be wasting your money for 2 speaker set up with these.

Interesting scenario. The only I can think of is to split the connection since you probably only have one center channel speaker output on your receiver. The other thing you can do is use your rear center channel connection if your receiver has it.

curious if you figured this out...i just remodeled my house and ran speaker wire in 3 different locations that I would like to control from one unit and have the ability to listen to 1 room, 2 or all 3

You could run a speaker switching box to the back where speaker wires attach to the receiver. I can't see why this would not work. I am unsure how much power it has to send to other rooms. Another option would be to connect it to your home theater, stereo system or whatever. Then it could go wherever those systems send music.

Actually, we have 18 speakers running through our speaker selector, from this receiver. Of course we do NOT run them all at the same time. We have four old Mach I speakers we use together in one room, otherwise we usually use two pair, one pair per room at the same time. We have doing this for a couple years now without issue. Of course, you can decided what total impedance you have based on your speakers, and set the impedance switch on the amp, and possible on your speaker switch if it also has one.

Why 5 sets? That's 10 speakers! If your doing a whole house,then no! If your doing a Living Room or Theater Room then yes!

Yes, You can use almost any configuration. Once you run the setup The receiver detects the size and number of speaker.
