Calculating the Impedance
Magnification Setting
Use the following instructions to select the correct
switch setting for the number and type of speakers in
your system.
1. Count the number of pairs of speakers you are
connecting to the system.
2. Set the Speaker Pairs switch on the rear panel of
the S-4VC/S-6VC to match the number of pairs of
speakers (1, 2, 3/4, 5/6). See Figure 3.
OPERATION
1. Make sure the amplifier or receiver power is OFF
and set the volume to minimum.
2. Set the volume control for the speaker pair you
wish to play to maximum (fully clockwise).
3. Locate the on/off button, which corresponds to the
speaker pair you wish to play. Set it to the ON
position by pushing the button in.
4. Turn on the amplifier or receiver and select as
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. Be careful not to overdrive or “clip” your
amplifier.If the sound becomes muddy or distorted,
you have reached the limit of your amplifier's
volume capability and should quickly reduce the
volume to avoid damaging your speakers.
