Sonance Speaker System SS6 User Manual

SS6 and SS4 Speaker Selector  
Installation Instructions  
CAUTION  
Under normal operating conditions the speaker selector will become warm. If not used properly the  
underside of this unit can become extremely hot. Do not operate the selector with an amplifier that  
exceeds the Maximum Amplifier Power ratings described in the Specifications section on page 2.  
To ensure safe operation follow all of these instructions carefully:  
• Do not place the selector on top of or near plastic or combustible material.  
• Do not place other components directly on top of the selector.  
• Do not place the selector in an enclosed cabinet without providing adequate ventilation.  
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. Do not place the speaker  
selector on top of or near plastic or combustible material.  
Connecting the Speaker Selector to the Amplifier  
Important: Turn the receiver’s or amplifier’s power OFF before making any connections to the selector.  
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 amplifiers 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 Amplifier “–” to Selector “–”.  
Connecting the Speaker Selector to Speakers  
Important: Turn the receiver’s or amplifier’s power OFF before making any connnections to the selector.  
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).
