Connection Method #1

Use this method when you are using the SS88IWS with your main receiver/amplifier.

Connect the main left and right speaker-level outputs on your receiver/amplifier to the Input 1 (for left channel) and Input 2 (for right channel) connectors on the SS88IWS loudspeaker or connection panel. Connect the Output 1 terminals to the correspon- ding terminals on your front

left speaker, and the Output 2 terminals to the correspon- ding terminals on your front right speaker.

You may wish to mount the SS88IWS horizontally to pre- serve the stereo image of the left and right low frequencies.
