Just to clarify, each zone has the VC that has the ohm load leveling. So, in 5 zones, there will be 1 speaker. in 3 zones there are two speakers, and the last zone I may have 2 - 4(It is outside, so, I won't be getting to this until next spring). On the rooms with 2 or more speakers I was going to put them on the same channel and run it through the Volume control as one speaker so the ohm load stays at 8. It will lower the watts. So, I will do 7 rooms each room on one of the 7 channels on the AVR. I will run the avr at all channels in stero. For zones 8 & 9, I will pick up a two channel amp.
If my logic isn't correct, would that dayton 12 channel amp be a better choice?
I'm not the best about the whole house stuff. So, any help would be appreciated.
