    The Connect:Amp is capable of powering at most four 8 ohm speakers, two Left channel speakers and two right channel speakers. Also, the speakers must be connected in parallel, not series.

    It does not sound like a Connect:Amp will work with this setup unless the speakers are broken down into smaller zones, and you'd then need multiple Connect:Amp units to power them all.
