Z Series Specialty Components

It's easy to upgrade your 5.1 system to the latest

standards with this new Z-series miniature, the CSE

6.1 center/surround expander. Just insert it between

your preamp's rear-channel outputs and your amp,

and voila: a rear center (two if you prefer), a rear

subwoofer channel, and even two rear ceiling or in-

wall speaker channels – everything needed to buff

your system up to 9.2 – all become available

instantly. Compatible with Dolby Surround EX, THX

EX, and DTS ES matrix surround formats, the CSE

can provide that extra circular-surround wallop that

makes for total sonic immersion!
