Don't know anything about it but I bought this about 5 years ago
(http://www.outdoorspeakerdepot.com/4spsewvoco.html).  It has
connections for 6 separate speaker systems/volume controls.  I hook my
stereo up to it and my computer, CD/DVD, radio and tape player are all
hooked up to the stereo.  Works great, no buzzing or scratching.  You
need to wire everything up though.   Only cost $150.  Thats what I paid
6/2006.  Still the same price, and I am very happy with it.
