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

•Connect the SSP 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 center output to the input of the amplifier designated for the center channel speaker.

•Connect the SSP 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

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 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.

The SSP-800/CT-SSP 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!

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.
