About these instructions
The
K8
amplifier with its seven output stages is extremely versatile: if all the output stages are not required for the
surround system in the main room, they can be used to provide sound in up to three additional rooms or listening zones
in the main room. It is possible to adjust the volume separately in the adjacent rooms or listening zones, or in parallel
with the main room.
All the controls and functions of the
K8
which are frequently used are described in the first section of these operating
instructions.
The second part -
'Basic settings, Installation, Using the system for the first time'
covers connections and settings
which are very seldom required; they are generally required only when the machine is set up and used for the first time.
Here you will also find a detailed description of the network settings required for connecting the
K8
to your home
network.
For newcomers to networks we have prepared explanations of some of the important terms used in this technology and
other background information in the Chapter
'Network Terminology'
.
