JSS4-TS
WARNING: Improper installation could result in damage to the amplifier. Read all instructions
before installation.

Introduction
Your JSS4-TS speaker selector allows simultaneous operation of up to 4 pairs of 8 hm speakers.
Automatic load protection circuits assure that the amplifier will always see a load of 4 hms or
higher no matter what combination of speaker is turned N. The built-in protection circuit
operates with switch pairs, permitting hookup choices for maximum power to your most
frequently used speakers (up to 2 pairs). More information will be found under INSTALLATI N
below.
The left and right channels are completely separate to assure safe operation with any type of
amplifier, including those with isolated grounds (bridging outputs).
ther features include power handling capability of up to 155 watts per channel.
Installation
When any speakers are turned on resistance is inserted in series with them in order to keep the
amplifier load at 4 hms or higher. Coupling to any speaker is always direct when only one
switch in  N
The JSS4 rubber feet provide a non-marring, stable mount to permit convenient placement.
Allow room for adequate ventilation around the switch box, it can become quite warm if opera-
tion at high power with the productive resistors switched in. Do not place on surfaces easily
damaged by heat.
The JSS4 front panel buttons all operate in the same manner, push to turn N, push again to
turn FF. The switch is N when pushed in closest to the JSS4 front panel.
Caution: Do not apply audio power in excess of 155 watts per channel when the internal
impedance matching resistors are switched in! DAMAGE T C MP NENTS CAUSED BY EXCES-
SIVE P WER APPLICATI N IS N T C VERED UNDER WARRANTY.

Connection
To make a connection, strip about ¼in of insulation from the end, twist any loose strands toget-
her tightly so that no loose end sticks out to cause problems with short circuits. Make the
connection by unscrewing the binding post counterclockwise and exposing the wire hole. Insert
the stripped wire end into the wire hole and tighten the binding post by turning it clockwise.
Make sure the metal conductor contacts the stripped part of the wire, not the insulation, and
there are no loose strands to cause problem short circuits.
bserve polarity when making connections, making sure +(plus) goes to + (plus), - (minus) goes
to  (minus) and that the channels are not crossed. Improper connections can cause the system
to be inoperative or less than optimum.
Following the same precautions, connect the speaker wires to the appropriate JSS4 terminals
marked output.
