Playing Two or More Speaker Pairs Simultaneously

1.Make sure the amplifier or receiver power is OFF and set the volume to minimum.

2.On the right side of the SPS-4's front panel is a button labeled PROTECTION. This button activates the SPS-4's imped- ance correction circuitry. The circuitry assures that your receiv- er or amplifier will see a safe operating load when playing mul- tiple speaker pairs simultaneously. Since most receivers and amplifiers are not rated for use below a 4 ohm load, you will need to activate the PROTECTION button whenever the over- all system impedance might fall below 4 ohms. Use the follow- ing chart as a guide for setting the PROTECTION button.
