WHOLE-HOUSE MUSIC IN A BOX
■ Music, Where, When And How You Want It Enjoy up to
four audio sources in up to four different areas (zones)—all
at the same time. The kids can “rock out” upstairs while dad
listens to the news in the den and mom plays her favorite
CDs outside by the pool.
■ Everything You Need The ZR-4 Kit comes with a built-in
AM/FM tuner; four weather-resistant keypads, a hand-held
remote control, three Infrared MicroFlashers
®
(for controlling
the audio equipment), and a set of rack-mount ears for
installing the ZR-4 into an equipment rack.
■ Built-In AM/FM Tuner Unlike most multizone systems, the
ZR-4 has the AM/FM tuner built right in. It plays music right
out of the box without the need for additional equipment.
■ Weather-Resistant Keypads Install the keypads where you
want, even in areas that get wet like bathrooms, spas or out
on the patio by the pool.
■ 4 Ohm Stable Digital Amplifi er Advanced digital power
amplifi er design delivers eight channels of robust power (40
watts per zone/20 watts per channel) with the ability to
comfortably drive two pairs of 8 ohm speakers per zone.
■ Hand-Held Remote Control Provides advanced control for
the system’s audio sources as well as the local TV and a
second local source, i.e., cable/satellite receiver. It comes
preloaded with the commands for the ZR-4 and many
popular brands of equipment. Unique commands can be
learned by the remote.
■ Plasma/LCD-Proof IR Sensors Each keypad has a built-in IR
sensor that resists interference from fl at-panel plasma or LCD
TVs. The IR sensor is defeatable for areas with direct sunlight.
■ Voice Paging and Doorbell Chimes The ZR-4’s paging input
enables you to connect a telephone system’s paging output
and/or an optional Niles DBI-1 Doorbell Interface so that it
automatically pauses the music and plays through the system.
■ Perfectly Calibrated Sound Independent bass, treble,
and variable loudness controls enable you to custom tune
each zone for the best sound quality and match room
acoustics from zone to zone.
■ Party Mode With a single press and hold from a keypad
the user can turn on the entire house (or a preset number
of zones) to listen to the same source, which is ideal for
entertaining or setting the mood.
■ Zone Linking Program up to four zones so that turn-on,
source selection, and turn-off work in unison. Each zone
retains independent volume, bass, treble and variable
loudness control, which is a great feature for a restaurant/
bar or for adjacent rooms such as a master bedroom and
master bath.
■ Share Your Home Theater Components The ZR-4 is
designed to intelligently manage source sharing with an
independent home theater system.
■ Flexible Control Options The ZR-4 MultiZone Receiver can
be controlled by secondary control systems via RS-232
devices and/or discrete infrared commands.
■ Worldwide Compatibility The ZR-4 is also available in
Export and UK (keypads fi t 80 mm boxes) versions
