13 X. Using the Fixed and Variable Lineouts Zone Variable Lineout Each zone of the Essentia amplifier has two 3.5mm mini stereo outputs. These are fixed and variable lineouts used for adding additionalamplification when necessary for each zone. A distinct advantage to the NuVo equipment is the abili...

Page 15 - Zone Fixed Lineout; Diagram shown using the NuVo P2100 amplifier

Zone Fixed Lineout In some zone applications, it is more advantageous to have a separate volume control on the additional speakers being driven by anadditional amplifier. This is common with outdoor zones. The fixed lineout offers the capability to add amplification, but the audio signalis not affec...
