System Setup Strategy 

 

Before you attempt to connect source components to your 

SSP-25

, take some time to 

think of the most convenient ways to enjoy your system.  Remember that the 

SSP-25

 is 

extraordinarily flexible and will allow you to easily configure your system so that the whole 
family, even the “technologically challenged,” can use it instinctively.   
 
The information in this Section will help you think through your system configuration.  
However, before you read it, ask yourself the following questions:  
 
1)  What kind of audio outputs do I have on my source components and which ones do I 

want to connect to my 

SSP-25

?   

 
 

For example, you may ask yourself  “Does my CD player have a coaxial digital output 
in addition to the analog outputs?   Should I use the digital output and let the 

SSP-25

 

handle D/A conversion or use the D/A converters already in the CD player?”   

 
2)  What kind of video connections will I use -- composite or S-Video?   
 
 

Although composite is by far the most popular, S-Video offers performance 
advantages provided that 

all of your video components, including your monitor, offer 

S-Video connectors and will be placed reasonably close together

.    

 
After you’ve begun to answer these questions, the following information will help you 
pinpoint specific issues.    
 
Remember that system configuration is a matter of personal preference and usually 
results from trial and error.  After you’ve identified all important physical and electronic 
parameters, experiment to find out which components “work” best at different inputs.  
Don’t feel that you have to get everything absolutely correct the first time around.  The 

SSP-25

 will accommodate almost all preferences.

4.3.1.1   

Types of Audio Inputs 

 

As you noticed while reviewing the rear panel diagram and associated notes in

 Section 1

,

 the SSP-25 has 

seven audio inputs

, three for audio-only components and four for audio/video components.  Here are the 

input types and brief comments:
