Each of these channels leads to a separate speaker, but they are all powered by a single amplifier that is cenraly locat- ed so that the massive spider of wires needed to r fficiently.

As the number of speakers grew, another amp was added, until we reached the point many systems are nearing today each speaker has its own amplifier mounted on or very near the speaker itself.
