Grouped Stereo Functions

After you create a group of stereos, additional functions and options are available to all stereos in the group.
• After you create a group, all of the stereos in the group share the same synchronized display.
• You can select a source from any stereo in the group, with a few limitations (

Grouped Stereo Source 

Considerations, page 23

), and the source will play simultaneously on all stereos in the group (

Selecting a 

Source, page 5

).

• You can control playback (such as pausing and skipping tracks) on any stereo in the group, and it will affect 

all stereos in the group.

• You can adjust the volume for any zone on any stereo in the group.

TIP: When adjusting the volume, you can select ALL to adjust the volume of all the stereos in the group at the 
same time.

Grouped Stereo Source Considerations

When selecting sources to play over the network, you should observe these considerations.
• A zone stereo, such as the Apollo SRX400, can create or join a group to control and play sources from other 

stereos, but it cannot share its sources with the group.

• You cannot share an AirPlay source with grouped stereos. Using AirPlay 2 software, you can play content on 

multiple stereos on the network, but the stereos must not be grouped (

Apple AirPlay, page 13

).

• You can disable sharing on most sources by changing the GROUP ENABLED setting for the source. When 

disabled, the source cannot be selected from a grouped stereo (

General Settings, page 25

).

• When audio sources are streamed over a data network, there is a slight delay in the synchronized audio that 

may be noticeable if you are also using an external audio source.

If you have a television with an Optical Out connection to a stereo and you continue to use the television 
speakers, there will be a delay between the audio from the television speakers and the optical audio 
streamed on the grouped stereos.

If you synchronize a radio station and tune that same radio station on a non-networked stereo, there will be 
a delay between the audio from the non-networked stereo and the audio from the radio station streamed 
on the grouped stereos.

You can remove this delay by changing the GROUP ENABLED setting for the source, but the source cannot 
be shared with grouped stereos (

General Settings, page 25

).

NOTE: You cannot change the settings when a stereo is part of a group. You must remove the stereo from the 
group before you can change any settings.
