Introduction
The SS6 and SS4 let you connect multiple pairs of loudspeakers to one receiver or amplifier and have all sets of speakers active
at one time. The SS6 lets you connect up to six pairs of speakers; the SS4 lets you connect up to four. Each pair of speakers can
be turned ON and OFF independently.
Where to Place the Speaker Selector
For optimum performance, the speaker selector should be placed close to your receiver/amplifier.
If you place the selector in an enclosed cabinet or between shelving, make sure there is adequate space (at least two inches)
between the top of the selector and any shelving, cabinetry, or components placed above it.

Connecting the Speaker Selector to the Amplifier
Use 16-gauge (or larger) speaker cable like Sonance MediaLinQ Gold or Bronze 16/4 speaker wire to connect the amplifier to
the selector.
1. Strip ¼” – ½” of insulation from each speaker lead. Twist the strands to ensure that there are no stray strands.
2. Connect the speaker leads between your amplifier’s speaker outputs and the input terminals on the back of the speaker
selector (see
Figure 1
, on page 3). To avoid a short-circuit that can damage your receiver or amplifier, be sure no stray
strands of wire touch each other or the chassis’ of the selector or amplifier.
Note: Double check the polarity of the speaker wires for each channel: Amplifier “+” to Selector “+”
and Amplif ier “–” to Selector “–”.
Connecting the Speaker Selector to Speakers
Use 16-gauge (or larger) speaker cable. It is easiest to run 4-conductor cable (for example, Sonance MediaLinQ gold or
Bronze 16/4 speaker cable) from each stereo pair of speakers to one of the speaker outputs on the back of the speaker
selector (see ‘Room 1’ in Figure 2 , on page 3).
