INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION

The “+/-“ polarity connections for the inputs and outputs are clearly marked on the rear panel and use screw-
type speaker terminals. The modules which allow the wires to be connect can be removed for easier access 
and installation. Make sure that the system and all source components are powered down before making any 
connections.

Connect the speaker wire to the appropriate “+/-“ terminals of each speaker and amplifier/AVR. Route the 
speaker wires from each zone and amplifier/AVR to the speaker selector. The terminals on the speaker 
selector accepts up to 14 gauge wire with 14-16 gauge wire being recommended. Strip ¼” insulation from 
the end of the speaker wire and slightly twist to avoid fraying. Loosen the screw on the appropriate speaker 
terminal and insert the striped end of the wire into the proper terminal. Make sure the proper “+/-“ polarity is 
maintained when connecting the speaker wires. Tighten the screw to clamp the cable in place.

The VSS2/VSS4 have the ability to select between “A” and “B” sources. 

There is an 8-position plug on the left rear of the unit labeled “INPUT”. This 
is where the speaker level inputs from two sources are connect. Wires are 
attached in the same manner as above. 

Once everything is connected, you can begin testing. Turn on the sound system and set the amplifier’s volume 
control to a moderate level. If each zone is turned on, check each zone for audio and balance. If you are have 
two sources connected (“A” and “B”), test each zone’s source switching. If you only have one source connected 
(“A”), make sure all source switches are set “A”.
