T thenatinator Junior Audioholic Jan 21, 2010 68 0 0 Jul 13, 2010 #1 Have a friend with a pre wired house with 10 rooms two channels per room speakers already installed and cables run to a central closet. He wants multizone for cheap. Was thinking about recomending two Dayton MA1240 and a pc with multiple sound cards running jriver. Failing that a Behringer a500 with an aton speaker selector. Are these a good way to go considering the budget. Anyone used the dayton amp before? Advice would be hugely appreciated. Thanks

It would be a better solution than a typical multi-channel impedance protecting distribution strip and a single stereo amplifier. Reactions: thenatinator
