No need, just fixed the problem, using the switches in the sockets for speakers, (plus 2 resistors totalling 6p for the extra mixing!) I can now announce that if you have only TWO speakers, 3 channels will come out each, ie left speaker will have front left and rear left channels, and for the right speaker you will have front right and rear right channels. if you have 4 then same as before, 2 channels to front left, 2 to front right 1 to rear left and 1 to rear right. Okay now Ian? Colin.
