You can use 4 2 channel amp or use some multi channel amp to control each speaker. You will also need 8 seprate volume control for each speaker, but that can either be done on a control preamp or volume control in the power amp. You can also use 8 L-pad for the speaker but that you would need some heavy duty 2 channel amp to drive them all. The first way is a better way, this is base on NOT knowing what speaker you are trying to drive and what is your buget of the system.
How Do I Control 8 Speakers Individually
Hi, Is there any way I can control 8 different speakers individually? I would like to be able to fade audio from one speaker, increase audio on the second, fade the 2nd while increasing audio on the 3rd, etc. My objective is to use audio to create movement around a 100 ft by 60 ft courtyard. My purpose is to use this in a lightshow at a haunted house I am trying to build. I know that you can use a quad amp for 4 speakers. What kind of equipment would I need? Help!! Thanks Mick
