Multi-Zone Amp/zfz'er

Z=f2

Parasounds Z-l2 Zonemaster Amplifier is undoubtedly the best sounding, most flexible multi-zone amplifier
ever. With un-compromised sound quality the Zonemaster will effortlessly power up to twelve speakers using
either a stereo or mono signal, or twelve independent signals. For ease of use and installation, the Z-I2 is
bridgeable to six channel pairs, can be turned on via a DC trigger or audio signal, and can adjust the volume of each

channel individually. At last - a whole house distribution amplifier worthy of the Parasound name.
