Very well explained thanks, but how about if your amplifier has a zoning volume control lets say it has 5 volumes and the output of the amp has an output of 70v, 100v, and then the additional common outs and zone 1,zone 2,zone 3,zone 4, zone 5 can i also daisy chain on zones output?

Hi Alan, Yes, you can run an individual speaker run and daisy chain multiple speakers off of each zone of the amplifier. Just make sure to check the wattage per zone. We actually recently posted a video about multi-zone systems if you want to check it out kzread.info/dash/bejne/h5uss8VyiLDfptI.html Hope this helps and good luck!

Hi guys, thanks for you video, I have a question, the 70v system is nice but does it need to be connected to a 70v output amplifier ? Can this be connected to a regular amplifier with 8ohms outputs ? If not, can I put in reverse mode, a transformer (8ohms to 70v) by connecting the 8ohms to the amp output (making sure i'm not exceeding the power of the transformer) and the 70v (usually the primary) to the 70v line ? If yes, what would be the considerations I need to know ?

Hi, 70-volt speakers need to be hooked up to a 70-volt amp unless you use the 8 ohm bypass on a 70-volt speaker to hook up to a low-impedance amplifier (and adhere to the recommended impedance of the low-impedance amp). External 70-volt transformers are available for purchase, but great care should be taken in installing them as they are high-voltage devices that require electrical connections.

Great video. I am building a massage clinic with three rooms and a main reception area. One speaker, and volume control per room. Multiple speakers in the reception area. I have my contractor doing other electrical work and am going to propose this method to him for install speakers. Is this something an electrician should be able to easily comprehend and carry out? It seems rather straightforward with the right equipment. I would just want to make sure I have the right speakers, amp, knobs, and of course wiring. Thanks!

Hi I have two questions 1 how do I also connect sub woofers on one zone of that regulator or volume switch. 2 how can I run it that one zone can be reduced from other zones and use it for my self example if I want to use the speakers on zone 3 for myself completely and I switched it of from the amplifier being the source and play music with my phone later can switch on when am done

I'll do my best to answer both of your questions. 1. The volume controls on the zone regulator are specific to each zone and are assigned to one amplifier. You can connect the subwoofer to the desired zone just like you would connect any 70V speaker. 2. If you require the ability to assign the subwoofer to specific zones and control it independently, you would need a matrixing multi-zone amplifier setup. I recommend reaching out to our sales engineers, who can provide further guidance if needed. Feel free to contact us at (888) 256-4112 or email sales@proacoustics.com.

instead of using the attenuators, can i connect an output distribution splitter between the amp and the speakers? Behringer DS2800?

@ProAcoustics

Hi there! Unfortunately, this will not work with the DS2800 because it is a line level signal splitter. Splitting a powered signal would likely result in the Behringer unit overheating even at 70V. If you are wanting to power up to four zones I'd recommend looking into the Pure Resonance Audio RZMA120BT. www.proacousticsusa.com/pure-resonance-audio-rzma120bt-4-zone-120w-commercial-rack-mount-70-volt-mixer-amplifier-with-bluetooth.html There are also amps available with up to eight zones that you could use if you know your way around DSP processing.

Hi Sami, Yes, with a single zone amplifier, you can still use more than one volume control, each with a separate set of speakers. As long as your volume controls have a high enough wattage for how much those speakers are drawing.

Hi Lawrence! There may be some 70 volt systems that allow conventional 8-ohm speaker operation within their voltage range, but I am not aware of those models at this time.

one question I have 100W amp and 8 speakers 10W does volume control draw aditional power from amp can I put 3 30w controlers to make 3 zones

@ProAcoustics

5 ай бұрын

It's essential to ensure that both the amp and the volume controls can handle the cumulative wattage of the speakers. Having 8 speakers with 10 watts each and using 3 volume controls rated at 30 watts should work fine (3 speakers x 10W per speaker = exactly 30W per volume control). Just ensure that the total wattage of the speakers connected to each volume control does not exceed its rated capacity.

What if total wattage of speakers is bigger than volume control wattage. Does it effect on original sound level of amplifier?

@ProAcoustics

5 күн бұрын

If the total wattage of the speakers exceeds the wattage rating of the volume control, it can cause damage to the volume control. The wattage load of the volume control is determined by adding up the selected wattage taps of the speakers connected to it. Make sure the combined wattage of the 70-volt speaker taps does not exceed the wattage rating of the volume control to avoid any issues.

is there a voltage drop in the system? speakers in DC chain?

@ProAcoustics

6 ай бұрын

It's possible to have some voltage drop in a system with speakers in a DC chain, but it's typically a negligible difference. The extent of voltage drop depends on factors like the number of speakers used and the length of the speaker chain. In most cases, the impact is minimal.

Can I connect a 100 watt 70 volt volume control to an 100 watt 70 volt amp? Or should the wattage of the volume control be less than the amp?

@ProAcoustics

Hi Jonathan, Your amplifier will need to have at least 20% more wattage than the total wattage of your volume control and speaker taps combined. We have a video explaining this here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/X6Ohq7Gie7jYlNo.html When adding volume controls it’s the same concept. So for example, if you had (1) 100 watt volume control and (4) speakers each tapped at 25 watts, that would be a total of 200 watts. 20% of 200 is 40. So you’d need a 240 watt amplifier. I hope that helps. Feel free to reach out at www.proacousticsusa.com

Hi there, thanks so much for watching! For dynamic environments where noise levels vary throughout the day, we do suggest utilizing volume controls. However, for more stable and consistent environments using a lower speaker tap is acceptable for zoning volumes out in different rooms accordingly. I hope this answers your question.

Hi Ken, With some sound systems, you can adjust the volume via Bluetooth app connection to the speakers or mixer amplifier with your wireless device. You could also install an inline volume control in this case so that you could use Bluetooth or the wall control to adjust the volume. Unfortunately, there are not good options for Bluetooth wall volume controls. Bluetooth also has a very limited range of around 30ft typically, so it would not have the reach needed to be an effective solution.
