Niles Audio ZR-6 (ZR6) 6 Source, 6 Zone Audio MultiZone The ZR-6 is a multizone solution loaded with desirable features such as plug-and-play iPod® integration, metadata display, a built-in AM/FM tuner, One Touch To Entertainment™ automation, and optional video distribution—at a price that breaks new ground. It delivers six audio sources, including its AM/FM tuner to six listening zones. If more than six zones are needed, simply add as many as two ZR-6s to create up to an eighteen zone system. The ZR-6’s array of control interfaces, which includes a full-color touchscreen, ensures the perfect level of control for every location and every installation. ZR-6 MULTIZONE RECEIVER The plug-and-play design of the ZR-6 and its intuitive wizard based,on-board programming combine to simplify configuration and installation. The ZR-6 houses a multitude of flexible connections and a high-quality 4-ohm stable digital power amplifier that provides twelve channels of robust power (50 watts per zone/25 watts per channel). Preamplifier outputs are also included for zones 4, 5, and 6, should you require more power in these zones. R-8L HAND-HELD IR LEARNING REMOTE This versatile remote provides advanced, automated control of all six of the ZR-6’s sources, as well as a local TV and an additional local source such as a DVD player or satellite receiver. The R-8L can create IR macros and comes preloaded with a library of IR commands for both the ZR-6 as well as many popular brands of equipment. It also learns IR commands directly from factory remote controls.

The Solo-6 MD Master Keypad adds an LCD screen with metadata. The Numeric-6P Accessory Keypad can be combined with the Solo-6 IR for additional functionality and control. Keypads are available in five designer colors: White, Light Almond, Bone, Silver, and Black * High Performance 12-Channel Digital Amplifier The advanced digital amplifier delivers robust 50 watts of power to each zone with excellent sound quality. And since it's an 8-ohm stable design, you can use up to four loudspeakers in a single zone. * RS-232 and Discrete IR Control Control systems from both Niles and other manufacturers can be seamlessly integrated with the ZR-6 MultiZone Receiver. IR storage includes two library pages for accessing secondary system commands such as lighting, drapery, and the VS-6 component video switcher. The ZR-6 has six IR Flasher outputs. * Preamplifer Outputs with 12V Triggers Zones 4, 5, and 6 are equipped with preamplifier outputs to accommodate external power amplifiers such as Niles System Integration Amplifiers®. Each preamplifier output includes a 12V trigger to automate amplifier turn-on and turn-off. The ZR-6 has a total of four 12V control outputs for voltage triggers. (One is global, and 4, 5, and 6 are zone specific) * System-Wide Audio Paging (Doorbell and Telephone) The ZR-6 MultiZone Receiver has circuitry that automatically mutes the audio and plays doorbell chimes and telephone pages through the system’s loudspeakers. When done, the audio automatically returns to its previous level. Doorbell chimes requires the DBI-1 Doorbell Interference. * Custom-Tailored Sound With separate bass, treble, and variable loudness adjustments on each keypad, each zone is easily calibrated for high-quality sound and balanced acoustics from room to room. * Expandable To 18 Zones The system architecture allows you to expand the system to up to 18 zones by adding additional ZR-6 MultiZone Receivers. When multiple ZR-6 MultiZone Receivers are combined, each unit’s built-in AM/FM tuner remains active, making it possible to tune in different radio stations in each bank of zones. * Integrate and Distribute HD Video With the optional VS-6 High Definition Component Video Switcher, you can distribute high definition video and audio to any or all of the ZR-6’s zones. This combination delivers up to four high definition video sources to up to six zones.
