SPS - 4 INSTALLATION & OPERA TION GUIDE N I LES ® MODEL SPS-4 SPEAKER SEL ECTION SYSTEM SPS - 4.
Introduction The SPS-4 allows you to connect up to four pairs of speakers to your stereo receiver or amplifier and play any pair, any combination of pairs, or all pairs simultaneously.
Features and Benefits The SPS-4 offers a number of improvements over other speaker selectors: ● Pre-printed Room Labels are included for easy identification of speaker ON/OFF buttons. ● Isolated left and right channel ground returns make the SPS-4 compatible with all types of amplifiers.
● May be used with 4, 6, or 8-ohm speaker systems. ● Ideal for both home and commercial sound installations. ● Only a wire stripper is required for installation. ● Power handling: 1 00 watts/channel continuous music power. ● Frequency response: Flat ( + 0 dB, - 0 dB) from 20 Hz to 20 kHz.
Installation Considerations SPS-4 Power Handling The SPS-4 is designed for use with a receiver or amplifier hav- ing a maximum power output of 100 watts per channel at 8 ohms. Damage caused by the use of a higher-power receiver or amplifier will void the warranty.
The circuitry assures that your receiver or amplifier will see a safe operating load, even when all four speaker pairs are playing at the same time. The actual impedance load the SPS-4 presents to your receiv- er or amplifier will vary, depending on how many speaker pairs are playing and the impedance rating of each speaker.
wires inside walls, most states and municipalities in the U.S. specify that you must use a special type of speaker wire. Usually, the requirement is that the wire has a specific "CL" fire rating, such as "CL-2" or "CL-3".

Installation 1. Select a convenient mounting location for the SPS-4. 2. Run all the necessary wiring to the SPS-4. Label the wires for future reference.

3. Make the connections to the SPS-4. Strip 3/8" of insulation from the end of each wire. Tightly twist the end of each wire until there are no frayed ends.
Operation There are two ways to use the SPS-4. You may play one pair of speakers at a time, or play multiple pairs simultaneously. If you intend to play more than one pair of speakers at the same time, you will need to become familiar with the opera- tion of the SPS-4's PROTECTION button.
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.
3. Locate the ON/OFF buttons on the SPS-4 which corre- spond to the speaker pairs you wish to play. Set them to the ON position. 4. Turn on the amplifier or receiver and select a source, such as the tuner or CD player. 5. Slowly turn up the amplifier or receiver volume and set it to a comfortable (not maximum) listening level.
Balancing Speaker Volume The volume control on your receiver or amplifier serves as the "master" volume for all speaker pairs connected. The volume level of the speakers may vary from room to room. This is caused by several factors. Two lesser factors are the size of the speaker and its efficiency.
