[slinkelist] Re: [CPUXA] How to hook same audio source to multiple receivers

[Tony Golden]

Niles Audio and Xantech (among others) make audio distribution amplifiers
specifically for this purpose.  You may, however, be able to "split" the
audio output to multiple receivers without such a device, and without
noticeable degradation.

The feasability of this connection method would depend on the number of
receivers (there is a limit), the type of receivers (some models "shunt"
their inputs when not in use, and therefore aren't compatible), and the type
of CD or other audio source (some will not "drive" numerous inputs
properly).
