Connecting the Synthesis S3-SPP to your home
theater system is extremely straightforward.
Using the supplied interconnect kit, connect the
audio outputs from your surround processor or
receiver to the inputs on the S3-SPP.  (refer to
figure 1)  Using the supplied RCA – RCA cable,
connect from the left front output on the proces-
sor to the left front input on the S3-SPP.  Using
the remaining three cables, connect the center,
right front, and subwoofer outputs from the sur-
round processor to their corresponding inputs
on the S3-SPP.   

Note:  The rear ambient channels from the sur-
round processor do not to feed through this unit.
They are intended to be connected directly to the
power amplifier. 

OK, YOU’RE ALREADY HALFWAY DONE!

Now that you have connected the outputs of the
surround processor to the inputs on the S3-SPP,
the remaining step is to connect the outputs
from the S3-SPP to the inputs on the power
amplifiers.  If you are using amplifiers with XLR
style input connectors, you will need cables with
male RCA plugs on one end, and male XLR con-
nectors on the other.  If your amplifier has RCA
connections, then you will require male to male
RCA cables.  

If you have purchased a JBL Synthesis Three
Home Media System or Cinema Only System,
cables have been provided to simplify installa-
tion.  If you are using this product with another
system, consult with your JBL dealer to purchase
the necessary cables.

After gathering the appropriate cables, start by
connecting the left front output of the S3-SPP 

to the designated front left input channel on the
power amplifiers.  Do this for the remaining 
outputs:  center, right front, and subwoofer. 
Use the supplied "Y adaptor" to connect the 
subwoofer ouput to both the left and right 
subwoofer amplifier inputs (see Figure 1). 

If the S3-SPP is being used as part of a
Synthesis Home Media, or Cinema Only 
system, connect one end of the 5 pin din cable
(included) into the plug labeled “SCREEN
BOOST” located on the back panel.  Connect the
other end to the plug labeled “X-Over” on the
power sequencer.

Finally, after making sure that the connections
are made properly, plug the power supply cable
from the SPP-IPS (included) into the telephone
jack style receptacle at the back of the unit.  
DO NOT CONNECT THIS PLUG TO THE PHONE
SYSTEM, OR DAMAGE WILL OCCUR!  

If you are mounting any of the front speakers
behind a screen, read the section under Controls
regarding the screen boost controls before com-
pleting installation.

THAT’S IT!  YOU’RE ALL DONE!
