zone instantly.

Multizone Display—A wealth of information from
TriplePlay’s single display front panel, including
instant status of the receiver in the setup, catego­ry list, parental lock and normal modes of opera­tion, and full title, track, and artist information for
all three zones.

Flexible Control Options—Use the front panel,
an external controller unit via the RS232 control
port, a hardwired IR port, or an IR remote control
unit to control TriplePlay’s receiver.

future compatibility is guaranteed with
TriplePlay's analog and digital outputs. The
receiver uses the latest TOSLink Digital S/PDIF
Output and more traditional RCA Stereo Outputs
for each zone.

Stream Lock Parental Control—TriplePlay is a
parent’s dream, offering you the ability to block
channels you don’t want your family to hear. If
you forget the parental control code, use the
master password reset function to re-gain chan­nel access.

Channel Skip Control—Want TriplePlay to play
only the channels you like best and skip others?
This feature allows you to designate the channels
you want to hear, and exclude those you don’t, all
the while retaining the ability to scan through all
channels using regular channel commands.

Antenna—TriplePlay’s easily installable, high
gain omnidirectional antenna is small in size and
big in performance.
