I am installing four outside speakers, and want them all independent of one another.
I bought this: http://www.monoprice.com/Product?p_id=9995&gclid=CNap0L2vhMoCFQ8HkQod0_sMWQ
However much like everything I do, I didn't think it all way through. You can select speaker zones, but each speaker zone assumes a left and a right speaker. I just want one speaker to act as both left and right... for starters I don't feel like laying that much cable underneath the ground in my backyard. Secondly, two of the speakers are going on trees where there realistically can only be one speaker.
One each speaker "set" can I wire the left and right speaker to a single speaker? i.e. can I wire the left and right speakers into a single set of speaker wire without bad distortion and general all-around-badness?
It's plugging into a Denon receiver where I'm setting "all channel stereo", so my alternate idea is bypassing the speaker selector and just living with all speakers playing at once, since I can wire each to the receiver and basically take each speaker in independently.
Ideally the speakers would not play all at once. I want to wire up an outside projector and if I play all the speakers at once I will not be able to go "all out" since the two tree-speakers are next to our neighbors, who would hear it too much. The two speaker by our firepit would be the projector speakers and are central to the backyard, and I plan on positioning to minimize their impact on the neighbors.
