5 What is the Opus 500 Series Multi-Room? The Opus 500 Series Multi-Room is an innovative, yet wonderfully easy-to-use, whole house entertainment system. You can enjoy up to six hi-fi or video sources, independently, or simultaneously, anywhere in your home. In every room where the system is installed, Opus keypads and sleek remote handsets can give total control of your entire CD and DVD collection and access to a choice of radio stations. Opus Technologies is backed by Mordaunt-Short, a British hi-fi company, who for more than 30 years have been award winning industry leaders in loudspeaker technology...

7 Opus Wall Control Unit The Opus WCU500 wall control units are an object lesson in design, combining functionality with elegant simplicity, resulting in a system interface that provides every zone with full system control. Status is confirmed via a large easy to read liquid crystal display that clearly indicates the source selected as well as other system functions. 1 Built in clock with alarm and sleep timer 2 Indication that selected source is shared 3 High contrast wide viewing angle backlit display clearly indicates system status 4 Local input allows connection of a local source, such as a bedroom TV or VCR for every room 5 Menu system conveniently hides less frequently used functions such as the setup of bass, treble, balance etc. 6 Wide angle IR receiver allows full remote control of all system functions 7 One touch access to your favourite radio station or disc 8 Frequently used CD/Multi-changer/tuner source function control 9 Volume bar gives a permanent display of current volume level Actual size The wall control units fit into either a standard UK (single 47mm BS4662) or American (double J-box) back-box, making them exceptionally simple to fit.

8 MCU500 Master Control Unit A single control unit allows you to listen to up to six AV sources (DVD, Single or Multi-changer CD, VCR, Mini Disc etc.) including the system's built-in high sensitivity three band RDS tuner. Up to four zones and four sub zones (eight rooms in total) may be driven by a single Master Control Unit (MCU). By adding extra MCUs the system may be further extended up to a maximum of 24 zones plus 24 sub zones (48 rooms in total). SRC 500 MCU500 also available in black

9 Seamless Integration VSU500 Video Switching Unit For even more sophisticated installations an optional Opus Video Switching Unit is available. The VSU adds full Audio-Visual capability to the Opus 500 Series system. Watch and control Satellite TV, Cable, DVD and other visual sources from any room in the house. SCU500 Serial Control Unit The addition of an SCU to your system allows the Opus 500 Series to be integrated with a number of control systems such as AMX, Crestron and Teletask thus allowing the addition of touch-screens, integration with heating/lighting/cctv and other systems. USB, RS232 and RS422 connections are available. Marantz DH9300 Hard Disk Music Server Through our partnership with Marantz, Opus is able to deliver an unprecedented level of integration with that company's state-of-the-art hard-disk music server. Imagine being able to store your entire family CD collection over 12,000 tracks on one innovative, user-friendly device. Integrating seamlessly with the Opus 500 Series system via four special Opus outputs, you and your family can simultaneously listen to different music in four separate rooms and even browse the collection by artist, genre etc., all clearly displayed on the elegant Opus Wall Control Units.

11 Remote Control Handsets System Remote Control A further refinement of the system is that the Opus 500 Series can also be operated by use of this beautifully styled diecast aluminum remote control. From its slim profile the handset allows you to perform all of the functions of the keypad at a distance. Choosing a source or even setting the system's alarm clock function can all be carried out from the comfort of your couch and the design is so ergonomical and so tough that it can be left in the SRC500 hands of even the youngest user. Learning Remote Control Opus further demonstrates its versatility and superiority by providing as standard an intelligent or learning remote control unit. The LRC500 simply learns the infra-red codes from your TV, video recorder, CD player, DVD player and other sources, to provide full remote access to all your source component functions. LRC500 By connecting the LRC500 to the Master Control Unit's cloning port you can also download your stored code data in a once only operation thereby fully programming your Opus system with all of your source codes in a matter of seconds. Usable with any manufacturer s source equipment the LRC500 even includes local banks for control of a bedroom TV, VCR etc. and a lighting bank for integration with automated lighting systems such as Lutron.

12 Zone Amplification Modules Opus continues to break new ground with state-of-the-art digital Class T zone amplifiers. Their simple exterior hides a masterpiece of amplifier design. Essentially containing separate pre and power amplifiers, the various functions such as volume, bass, treble, balance etc., are micro-processor controlled while the high efficiency power output stage generates very low levels of heat, making it ideal for locating in confined spaces such as ceiling voids. DZM 20 A 20 watt per channel genuine hi-fi quality amplifier ideally used to power either a pair of our premium in-wall or ceiling mounted speakers. Mounted in a convenient location within the room (typically in a ceiling void) and featuring a local input so that typically a bedroom TV can be played through the multi-room speakers in that room. The DZM20 requires no mains input as it is simply powered by the Opus BTC1 cable from the MCU500 DZM 50 Powered via a local mains input, the DZM50 is capable of producing 50 watts per channel of true hi-fi quality sound. The DZM50 can be variously mounted to suit convenience and the local input facility enables a bedroom hi-fi system or television to be connected to the multi-room speakers in that room. DZM50s can also be chained where multiple pairs of speakers are required. DZM 100 The DZM100 is capable of delivering a mighty 100 watts per channel. As with all Opus amplifiers, the DZM100 can be easily located in a ceiling void or similar location and allows a bedroom television or audio system to be connected and played through the multiroom speakers in that zone. As with DZM50, DZM100s can also be chained where multiple pairs of speakers are required.

13 Opus Loudspeakers Mordaunt-Short's 30 + years of expertise in the design and manufacture of high quality speaker systems has been brought to bear in the development of the Opus OS165CC and OS165CLP multi-room loudspeaker. Renowned for their exceptional detail, transparency and musicality, Mordaunt-Short has produced a speaker capable of delivering spacious and dynamic reproduction anywhere in the home. While this shares many of the features common to Mordaunt-Short's highly acclaimed hi-fi loudspeakers, the drive unit and crossover has been designed to take account of the angles, frequencies and energy distribution characteristics of in-wall and in-ceiling applications. The discrete visual design of this product ensures that it is the quality of the audio performance rather than their appearance that holds the attention. Where required, grilles may also be painted to co-ordinate with existing décor, rendering them virtually invisible. Side Profile - OS165CLP OS165CC Side Profile - OS165CC

14 How Does The Opus 500 Series Work? The Opus 500 Series Multi-Room links your home entertainment equipment via a discretely situated Master Control Unit (MCU) to a number of zones around your home (e.g. bedrooms or reception rooms) and sub-zones (e.g. en-suite bathrooms). These are individually accessed and controlled using Wall Control Units and System Remote Controls. To connect these components together a specially developed balanced transmission cable is used, which, unlike most multi-room systems, requires only a single run of cable to carry audio, data and power to and from each zone. WCU500 Keypad Kitchen FM aerial Family room Conservatory sub zone Hi-fi or video equipment from virtually any brand can be connected to Opus. Shown here is a typical system.
