Greetings,
Came across this 8 channel (4 stereo) Harmon Kardon Amp for an extremely good priceHarman Kardon PA 4000
This is much less expensive than buying four separate amps to power four zones.
Now...I have read the manual online and all the details and think this could work...but am not clear on a couple of things
1 - It has 4 independent IR Sensor plug-ins. Does anyone know if using an ocelot and adicon one could simply plug in directly from the adicon and send the IR commands directly? Thoughts? Of course one could plug in 4 IR sensors and stick 4 IR emitters to the sensors but that seems cluttered and somehow not necessary.
2 - It has (what looks like cat5) remote keypad plug-ins on the back of the amp. Does anyone here have any idea what kind of trigger, I am assuming low voltage, HS would need to simulate the remote keypad commands?
Thoughts?
This unit sounds perfect for multi-zone audio and at $650 US it's a steal and much cleaner than using the 1 amp per zone...although the latter is still very good solution.
