Speaker selector recommendations

Speaker selector recommendations

Jim, To say the least...yes you`ll be pleased with the sound from those JAC6A's, especially comparing them to the Radio Shack stuff. A speaker selector will take care of the impedance matching in your system. You`ll need just standard volume controls. The Monster selector is fine and these volume controls would work fine: http://www.inwallstore.com/altx2d.html
Name : JIM Message : I HAVE 6 SETS OF PREWIRED SPEAKER LOCATIONS IN MY HOUSE. 5 INDOOR AND I OUTDOOR. I HAVE INSTALLED ONE SET OF RADIO SHACK SPEAKERS WITH AN IN WALL VOLUME CONTROL. I PLAN ON ORDERING THE OTHER 5 SETS, 5 VOLUME CONTROLS AND A 6 PAIR SPEAKER SELECTOR FROM YOU. I LIKE THE JAC6A SPEAKERS,4 SETS, A SS6 MONSTER SPEAKER SELECTOR AND A PAIR OF MASMC60W OUTDOOR SPEAKERS. PLEASE REVIEW THIS SELECTION AND RECOMMEND THE NEEDED 5 VOLUME CONTROLS(ALL INDDOR)...WILL THE SPEAKER SELECTOR RESOLVE THE IMPEDENCE ISSUE? WILL THE SOUND BE PLEASING FOR A WHOLE HOUSE SYSTEM? THANKS FOR YOUR HELP. JIM
