I did a couple of rooms like this. You have to place the AVRs locally if you want to run Audyssey.....if you are using speaker wires through volume controls then back to a centralized location, splice into the volume control and attach all your speakers to the AVR in room for testing and setup.


Think I'll just enjoy my speakers for awhile and then decide if I want to "setup locally"

You lived!

Thanks for the quote that’s good info. I suspected it would be susceptible to cable length at some point just not how far before I became an issue.
