Answer:
Hi David:
The key is the Surround system you either have or are looking to purchase. Many of the Audi/Video Receivers feature a second zone output so you can select a different source to play at the same time as your surround sound is active. You need to determine if the second zone output is a pre amp out (un-amplified) which means you would need an external amplifier (like our AMP200) before connecting to the DSM4 speaker selector. Or in some cases the second zone output comes from channel 6 and 7 of a 7.1 receiver that is only driving a 5.1 system. In this case you connect the DSM4 directly to channel 6 and 7 speaker outputs (amplifed). You would need to program the AVR to output these channels to a second zone. So yes this (DSM4) or any of our boxes will support your application, you just need to determine whether you need to add an external amplifier as well depending on the type of outputs from the AVR. And in case you have not yet purchased the AVR you will need to look for a receiver that features a true 2nd zone output.
