The Crestron
®
C2N-AMP-6X100 is a versatile and cost-effective multiroom
audio system designed for small to moderate sized houses, condominiums,
and businesses. Its integrated multichannel power amp provides ample
power for up to six rooms, which can be expanded simply using additional
C2N-AMP-6X100 units, or by connecting external amplifiers via the two
extra line-level room outputs. Twelve stereo line inputs are included to
accommodate a rack full of music and AV sources. With many of the same
pro features as Crestron’s more expensive systems, the C2N-AMP-6X100
lets everyone enjoy their own choice of music, sports, news, or talk in any
room as part of a complete Crestron system.

Any room output may be bridged to deliver a
robust 150 Watts @ 8Ω in mono to drive an in-wall subwoofer, or to deliver
increased power in stereo using two bridged room outputs paired together.
Each room has the ability to select any of the twelve input sources, with
complete control over the room’s volume, bass, treble, balance, loudness,
mute, and mono settings.
Subwoofer Support
The C2N-AMP-6X100 supports both passive and active type subwoofers
to provide any space with the extra low end you need to give your music
maximum impact.
• Passive Subwoofers — Any room output can be configured for bridged
mono operation to drive a single 8Ω passive subwoofer with 150 Watts
of power. Simply pair the bridged room output with any stereo room
output to support a complete 2.1 speaker system using a passive in-
wall subwoofer, such as the Aspire IWS82, along with a pair of Aspire
or other full-range speakers.
[1]
• Active Powered Subwoofers — Room outputs 5 and 6 are each
equipped with a stereo line output, which can be used to feed an active
powered subwoofer. Simply connect a pair of full-range speakers to the
speaker outputs of either room output 5 or 6, and connect the
corresponding line output to the subwoofer’s built-in amplifier. For long
wire runs, use a Crestron AUD-EXT Audio over CAT5 Extender.

Bonus Zones
In addition to its six amplified room outputs, the C2N-AMP-6X100 also
includes two fully-independent line-level room outputs (Room outputs 7
and 8), providing a total of eight individually-controllable zones from a
single unit. Each line-level room output includes the same complement of
volume, bass, treble, and other adjustments as the amplified room outputs.
• Extra Room Zones — Simply connect external power amplifiers to
outputs 7 and 8 to add support for up to two more rooms. Choose a
high-powered amplifier, such as the Crestron AMP-2210S
[1]
, to deliver
extra output to the game room, workout room, indoor pool, outdoor
deck, or any other space that demands higher volume levels.
• Home Theaters — Share all your whole-house audio sources with
your home theater and other surround sound zones. Connect either
output to the input of an AV receiver or surround sound processor,
such as the Crestron HD-XSPA
[1]
. Use a Crestron AUD-EXT Audio over
CAT5 Extender
[1]
to run the line-level signal up to 2000 feet (610
meters) to feed any AV receiver located far away from the central
equipment cabinet.
• Headphones — Create your own personal listening zone by connecting
either output to a headphone amplifier or wireless headphone system.
• Outdoor Landscape Speakers — Connect a 70 or 100 Volt amplifier,
such as the Crestron AMP-2210T
[1]
, to provide transformer-isolated
“constant-voltage” outputs to feed a system of distributed speakers
around the pool or patio. Use this solution with Crestron AIR landscape
speakers or Saros SR surface mount speakers.
[1]
• Commercial Applications — For restaurants, nightclubs, and retail
spaces, a 70 or 100 Volt “constant-voltage” type amplifier can be
connected to feed a distributed speaker system in a large dining area,
