The Suite 8500 is ideal when using ADA keypads as it combines the Suite 8200 with ADA's Control Suite (IR learner, keypad wire harness, RS-232 I/O, CMB-1 System Clock, BRT-1 Baud Rate Translator) all in a single chassis. The Suite 8500 remains unchanged: an incredible high performance, all-in-one multi-room solution with eight sources playing to eight zones. A Suite 8500 can be combined with a Suite 8200 for up to sixteen zones! And, just like the Suite 8200, the Suite 8500 features a current driven Class A/B power amplifier that is stable to 4 Ohms, providing a warm and rich musical experience, even at low volume levels. Suite 8500 also features preamplified audio outputs for each zone permitting you to add additional power amplification where needed. Zones 1 and 2 feature a subwoofer output. And while so many other "multi-room receivers" offer only one basic AM/FM radio, Suite 8500 features dual luxury radio tuners -- HD Digital AM/FM Radio, Sirius Satellite Radio or XM Satellite. Best of all, you get to pick which two (2) tuners you want. You can opt for HD Radio and either Sirius or XM satellite radio, two HD Radios, or even two satellite radio tuners. Suite 8500 combines ADA's luxurious sound and superior performance in a single chassis.

  • Two Internal Radio Tuner Modules - Select from Standard AM/FM/WX Radio, HD AM/FM/WX Radio, Sirius Satellite Radio, and XM Satellite Radio
  • Front Panel Color Touch Screen (TS-5000) - Controls Main Room & Can Control All Other Rooms Too
  • ADA's Control Suite - IRL-5000 Source IR Learner/Controller, WH-2000 Keypad (8) Wiring Harness, ISO-CAT-2 RS-232 I/O, CMB-1 System Clock, & BRT-1 IR Translator (for IR control of rooms and tuners)
