Introduction The SS-4/SS-6 allows you to connect multiple pairs of speakers to your stereo receiver or amplifier and play any pair, any combination of pairs, or all pairs simultaneously.
Installation Considerations SS-4/SS-6 Power Handling The SS-4/SS-6 is designed for use with a receiver or amplifier having a maximum power output of 100 watts per channel at 8 ohms. Damage caused by the use of a higher-power receiv- er or amplifier will void the warranty.
Avoiding Interference Speaker wires can act as an “antenna” for electrical noise. Locating speaker wires too close to a light dimmer or switch may cause a “buzzing” or “popping” sound to be heard through the speakers.
