Quick Install Guide

INTRODUCTION

This SS2V70 70V 2-Zone 100-Watt Speaker Selector features two independent mono 70V

100-watt speaker zones, each with its own on/off switch and volume control knob. It has a

single 2-conductor input and a pass-through output, allowing multiple speaker selectors to

be daisy chained. It supports up to 80 watts of 70V speakers connected to each zone.

POWER RATINGS

Unlike ordinary speaker systems, which require complicated impedance calculations for

multiple speaker arrays, constant voltage (70V) systems simply add the wattage ratings of

each speaker together. However, unlike ordinary systems that can use their full power

output, constant voltage systems can use only 80% of the rated wattage of the amplifier

and the connected speaker selector. This speaker selector is rated for 100 watts, so the

connected speaker arrays must be equal to or less than 80 watts each. If each speaker is

set to 5 watts, for example, you can connect up to 16 speakers in each array.

INSTALLATION

Perform the following steps to connect this speaker selector to your 70V audio system.

1. Power off and unplug the amplifier.

2. Strip about 1/4" of insulation from both ends of three 2-conductor speaker wires,

then twist the ends tightly so there are no stray wire strands.
