Questions & Answers
Can you have all zones hooked up to a single source but then choose to turn one of the zones off without having to disconnect them.
Answered by AnonymousHello. Thank you for your question and for your interest in the product. You can have every zone play the same thing, but to adjust the volume in real time (including on or off) would require a controllable matrix switch or individual sources connected to each zone that can be controlled remotely. As an example, if you had something like a 6 WiiM Mini or Sonos Port connected, you could have them all grouped in the app and turn them of and on that way. With that said, the amp doesn’t have any control capability. It’s a standalone power amp. We hope that helps, and please let us know if you have any other questions.
