Questions & Answers
If I connect a Sonos port to this amp and stream music via airplay from my iPhone, can i adjust the volume of what is playing via my iPhone or must I use a wall switch or manual knob on the amp itself?
Answered by Sonance TeamHi, Thank you for your question. Yes, you have a couple of options when using this amplifier. First, a Sonos Port is what you would need to stream music via the Sonos app or use AirPlay and control the volume. This amplifier comes with a BUSS input, meaning you can connect one Sonos Port to the amplifier and play the same music across all speaker channels. You could also connect a Sonos Port to any or all (8) local inputs on the amplifier. This would give you independent volume control for each local input. As an example, let's say you have (8) different areas/rooms in your home where you want to put a pair of speakers (for example, Kitchen, Dining Room, Primary Bedroom, Primary Bathroom, Office, Kids Bedroom, Guest Bedroom, Patio.) You could give each local input its own Sonos Port and have the ability to independently control volume in each room as well as play different music in every room. Using the Sonos app, you could also group areas and play the same music in those grouped rooms. This amplifier is very flexible and works great with Sonos Port. I hope you found this information helpful. If you have additional questions, please feel free to call our California-based support team at 949-492-7777 and ask for Tech Support.

Using one Sonos port to serve this Amp, if the amp is divided into 8 zones, can the port stream different music to each zone? Can this Amp be configured to power a subwoofer in a zone with other speakers (i.e., 3 right & left channels with a subwoofer)?
