will this work with only 2 speakers? i hooked it up and its very quite just hooking the deck up by its self is louder..

Yes it will, try bridging the two speakers. Works better if you hook up without the remote volume knob

Yes i am using mine with only 2 speakers. Have you tried adjusting the gain under the rubber removeable cap? There are also 2 buttons under the cap that adjust polarity and input level I believe.

It will work with only the 2 speakers i have my setup hooked up to 2 speakers only. I dont even have a radio just an ipod connection and it sounds pretty good.
1858548
Yes it should do. Did you set the right signal input? if you are using a phone or MP3 player set to "line input" and adjust the preamp poti on the unit.
1858549
Yes it will. As somebody said previously check your input. Mine is only hooked up to 2 speakers. I do have 1 speaker per channel also. I have 2 channels not being used at the moment. I also had a problem with 1 of the channels so I had to switch to channels 3 and 4 instead of 1 and 2 and it works perfectly.

Yes you are right gain not pre amp set to about about 2/3 and RVC. Plus your MP3 player or phone to max

It only has output for 4 sets of speakers. I guess you could connect two sets to one output but both would be on with that button.

I only use it with two ceiling mounted speakers in our kitchen. Not sure it would have enough power to run the outdoor speakers.

Technically only two but I connected two pairs of outside speakers and they sound ok. The volume will be lower because the output is divided in two but they sound fine

I tried it when initially setting up my system and it worked. I had the two long front speakers hooked up as the back and the sound was fine. I've since changed it back as I found two older speaker stands for the designated back speakers.

I have that set up on my deck. However, you need a couple of additional components. I used a Bluetooth audio receiver (HomeSpot NFC-Enabled Bluetooth Audio Receiver for Sound System) and a terrific little Lepai amp (LP-2020A+ Lepai Tripath Class-T Hi-Fi Audio Mini Amplifier with Power Supply). I got all the components from Amazon and it sounds great for a relatively small cost. Hope that helps.

I am using it with two speakers and my tv as the source. I guess if you speakers watts sum like 150-200 watts you can use it (aprox 40-50 watts each).My speakers are 100 watts each and they play OK. But I doubt that it will drive 4 100 watts speakers. That is my opinion for what is worth but I am not an expert on this matter.

This won't have enough power for all those and be very loud. I have one hooked to 4 speakers and a woofer but it didn't have enough kick, so I I took the woofer off and used a powered sub. Lepai does make one that has a subwoofer output which would probably be a better choice

the advice I found, and only after trying it with Bi-wired with my receiver, was unless you actually have two amps to power the speaker, wire it with the bridge in place via the single channel. You won't notice enough change with it bi-wired, and you only end up losing a pair of channels that you could otherwise use for rear surround or a second zone.

Hmm... I've never come across a question like this before. Well, I suppose you would have too bridge the connections. I'll try to explain as easy as possible... use the positive post from the right channel to the positive post on speaker... and then the negative post from the left channel to the negative post on the speaker. This will "bridge" the two channels to serve as one sound source (in theory) I've done this with car subs but never with home theater components. I would seriously do your research further before you attempt this because I would hate for you to buy a great speaker and something happened to it

You could hook up 4 speakers up to the four switches!push 1 for one speaker.hope that was helpful

This one makes a ton of noise, unfortunately. If you're buying a new deck, just make sure it has a mini-jack input/aux input. Problem solved.

You can try...but it won't be very loud. You'd only be putting out 50 watts on each speaker. You'd want to have a unit that can throw out 200 watts for a two speaker system.

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.

I hooked mine up to my surround sound system, but unfortunately the sound only came through one speaker. Hope you have better luck.

My husband hooked this up. We have 2 speakers in and 2 outside. He said you just have to decide which ones you want to play together. So if you want the 5 inside to play together hook these up to the screws on either side marked A/B, then the outside ones would get hooked to the screws marked B. Now the 5 inside should play alone when position to A, the ouside ones should play when in B position, and they should all play when in th A/B position. Hope this helps.

I speaker is sufficient. I'm not even sure you can link two speakers at a time. It sounds fine.
