Hi all.
Wifey wants speakers in several rooms fed off the same hi fi system with independent room volume control
Problem is current Hi Fi can only support 6 ohm load speakers. The current speakers in lounge is also 6 ohms.
There is no second set of speaker outputs. at the Hi Fi.
If I parallel up some passive speakers in the dining room and in the kitchen, this will present a load of 2 ohms to the Hi Fi, overloading its final output power transistors resulting in a costly repair to Hi Fi.
I've thought about series connection but as the speaker pairs will not be identical from room to room, and it makes independent room volume control impossible.....
There is no line output or headphone output for me to use with active speakers....
How do people overcome this?
The best solution I have identified so far is a gadget that can provide a line level output from the speaker outputs on the Hi Fi and feed that into some suitable active speakers for both the dining room and the kitchen.
Regards,
Stephen.
