Can this be used for 70v commercial speakers?

In my opinion, one has to determine whether the product will work within the actual limits of the product specifications. The answer is that the product I received seems to be very sensitive as numerous times my AMP has shut off due to an overloading factor. The manufacturer suggests putting the 'volume' of the AMP on low and the device on high for each speaker and then turn up the volume to one's listening preference - which might help with not overloading the 'system'. I am impressed with the ability to turn what set of speakers on and off, but not yet convinced that the product offers enough volume options for each of the speaker sets. Hope this helps.

I cannot answer your question without knowing the output of your amplifier. You need to be more concerned with the output of your amp than the watts of your speaker.

Yes, you can. Wattage ratings for speakers can mostly be ignored, as it is a difficult thing to determine exactly how much 'program material' a speaker can take, manufacturers just give consumers a nice round number.

It has 2 higher outputs more for subwoofers and then 4 lower outputs mainly for speakers. So it would work as long as your speakers are rated high enough to handle the watts for the 2 higher outputs.

Yes, you could. However, with a 7.1 system, all the speakes should be of the same quality, otherwise the "less inexpensive" may be "overloaded" and not be able to handle the wattage/volume.

Technically it could but I wouldn't recommend this unit for home theater. This has a 25/70v output which more for commercial building music and paging. You will need a home A/V receiver with 6 to 8 ohm speaker outputs. This is what your standard home audio speakers will be. If you are just hooking up a pair of speakers it can be something like 2 x 100 watts. If you want surround sound it will be 5,6 or 7 x 100 watts depending on what surround configuration you want.

I don't think that would be a good idea.. It's always best go by manufacture recommended wiring and amplification. Exceeding the power input beyond its capacity on any electronics could cause things to quite literally fry.

Why would you want to? The speakers are supposed to be one of it's best characteristics. It could be done but probably won't supply the power needed and you'll damage the system.

I bought this item to use as a PA system which had a good output on a 4" speaker. I have not tried this on any other system so I can not offer a good answer at this time.

I would imagine you can. This has circuitry protection built into it to protect it. I don't think it would matter the wattages as long as it's a balanced system between the 6 pairs of speakers.

This will ultimately depend on your power supply. Most standard USB ports (including those on TVs) are 5v 0.5amps = 2.5watts.If your speaker is 6v 0.5amps (3 watts), I believe it would be close enough to work, though your speaker may be slightly under voltage.

there is no set standard for rating watts, I have sold audio gear for many years, if you go to onkyo's web page and look at specs, you will see different numbers for different ohms and frequency, all manufactures do this. Very expensive amps will double there power into four ohms, but these are in the thousands of dollar range. The size of the power supply is what really makes a difference. If your speaker package is under the $2000 price range this should be fine, I bought this for my sons system.

Not really. Choose an amplifier with power more closely matching that of the speakers. The amplifier can be as much as about 50% more than the speakers rated power requirements. You are more likely to damage your speakers by under-powering them due to signal clipping. Not that this amplifier would damage your speakers, but you would be disappointed by the diminished performance. This amplifier is a 45 watt x 2 channel output. You only get 90 watts output by combining the two channels. You would then have two speakers in MONO (not stereo) at 90 watts maximum.

Yes it should work however you need to understand that when you have a speaker that has a high peak.. ie 100w etc, it takes more power to drive the speaker. the speaker select just balances the impedance but you will end up dividing the volume level by the number of zones the speaker selector has even if the extra zones aren't in use.. In other words.. you would need a much more powerful amplifier to enable you to hear rich and substantial sound from your speakers. This product was also dead on arrival when I received it. I would go with a more reputable manufacturer instead of this no name brand.. Good Luck!

This unit has a line level analogue input so it should work with powered speakers.

I don't know. I bought mine to run multiple (8) outside and inside speakers in my shop and patio area. It works well for that purpose. The prior one was a Walmart brand and it was running lots of interference and noise when I went from 4 to 8 speakers. It was only $50 and I am very happy with it's output

I do not see why not, the wall plug voltage is converted internally in your stereo receiver. The speaker voltage is no where near this high of voltage.
