Zones 1 & 2 include subwoofer line-level outputs and paging input.  A 16 zone system can be established by using an expansion port between two receivers.  These are expected to ship on February 16.

The Suite 8300 (suggested retail price: $4,999) includes an RS-232 port to connect to home-control systems from other brands.  The Suite 8400 (suggested retail price: $5,999) includes connectivity for music controls/touchscreen from ADA, a system clock, an 8 source IR learner and controller, and an IR baude-rate translator. ADA has also packaged its TS-8611 single-gang two-way touchscreens in groups of 8 for $3,500 (which adds up to $5,600 if obtained separately).
