Connect the Main Analog Audio Outputs, either RCA or XLR, from the rear panel of the SSP-800 to the corresponding inputs on your ampliﬁer(s) as follows:

•Connect the SSP-800 Front Left and Front Right outputs to the inputs of the ampliﬁer(s) designated for the Front Left and Front Right speakers, respectively.

•Connect the SSP-800 centre output to the input of the ampliﬁer designated for the centre channel speaker.

•Connect the SSP-800 Left Surround and Right Surround outputs to the inputs of the ampliﬁer(s) designated for the Left Surround and Right Surround speakers, respectively.

•If you are setting up a 7.1-channel system, then also connect the SSP-800 Left Rear and Right Rear outputs to the inputs of the ampliﬁer(s) designated for the Left Rear and Right Rear speakers, respectively.

•If you are using a subwoofer, connect the SSP-800 subwoofer output to the input of the designated ampliﬁer or powered subwoofer.

NOTE: Make sure connections from the subwoofer output go only to an ampliﬁer connected to a subwoofer, as low frequency signals can damage a small full-range speaker not designed for high output bass reproduction.

Verify that each cable is clearly labeled so that you don’t mix them up. When connecting a cable, make sure the cable has a good connection and is ﬁrmly attached to the rear panel connectors on both the ampliﬁer and the SSP-800.

The SSP-800 also provides two Auxiliary analog audio outputs. See the Rear Panel section for more details about the Auxiliary outputs.

Connect the loudspeakers to the amplifiers.

Verify that the power amplifier(s) is plugged in but powered OFF before connecting to the SSP-800!

Connect each loudspeaker to its designated ampliﬁer(s) channel. Pay close attention to the phase of the speaker connections – always connect an ampliﬁer’s red (+) terminals to the red (+) terminals of the loudspeaker. Likewise, connect black

(–) terminals to black (–) terminals.
