Triad_One_control4
VERSATILE ENOUGH FOR EVERY PROJECT


Control4’s Triad One is a single-zone, high-resolution streaming amplifier that is so versatile it can be used in many Control4 project. Here are a few ways:

Getting started with music — Triad One is the easy way to help you get started with music. From the office to the kitchen or even the garage, Triad One wirelessly connects to the home network so you can listen to your own music collection and your favorite streaming music services, including Spotify, Pandora, Tidal, and Napster.

Add an extra zone — We’ve all been there: you decide you want music in another room, but the multi-room audio amplifier is tapped out. Triad One Amplifier is the answer. Put Triad One in the equipment rack, hide it in the closet, or set it on the bookshelf. It’s a simple way to add another zone or two.

Elevate your TV experience — Use Triad One to make your 4K UHD TV sound as good as it looks. Digital and analog audio inputs and IR outputs make it ideal to connect to and control your TV and other AV devices. With 100 watts per channel and a dedicated subwoofer output, Triad One pairs wonderfully with Triad soundbars and subwoofers.
