Descriptions

A strong and effective dual source, audiophile-grade speaker selector for up to 8 pairs of speakers is the Monoprice SS-Pro 8. The SS-Pro 8 can play all 8 pairs of speakers simultaneously without the amplifier being harmed thanks to its sturdy transformers, which can withstand up to 300 watts of peak output per channel. You can choose between two amplifier sources using an A/B button on the front panel. Snap-in connectors are also simple to install and remove. Based on the number of connected speaker pairs, a rotary switch on the rear panel can be used to determine the proper impedance.

With dual sources and support for up to 8 pairs of speakers, the Monoprice SS- Pro 8 is a strong and effective speaker selector. The SS-Pro 8 can handle up to 300 watts of peak output per channel and has sturdy transformers that let you play all eight pairs of speakers at once without the amplifier being harmed. Selecting between two amplifier sources is made simple by a front panel A/B switch, and installation is made simple by easily detachable snap-in connectors. You may adjust the impedance dependent on how many pairs of speakers are connected using a rotary switch on the rear panel.

Features

  • Using the front panel push buttons on the 8-Zone Speaker Selector, you can connect up to 8 speaker pairs or 8 listening zones.
  • Impedance-matching transformers of the highest caliber are used to safely distribute maximum power throughout your system.
  • Switch on the front panel that is simple to use to switch sources.
  • Transport bag the chair folds into a small size and fits comfortably into the carrying bag that is provided for storage and transportation to the beach or up to the campsite.
  • With our low camping chair made of pure weatherproof aluminum, you can unwind in the great outdoors.

Note

Products with electrical plugs are made with American consumers in mind. Because outlets and voltage vary from country to country, this device might need an adapter or converter to be used where you are travelling. Verify compatibility, Please check compatibility before purchasing.

Frequently Asked Questions

The meaning of l- l+ r- r+

L and R stand for the left and right speakers, respectively.

Can I connect one pair of 8 ohm (nominal 6 ohms – Elacs speakers) speakers that are rated and another pair of 8 ohm speakers to play concurrently, Monoprice?

Yes, that is the main idea behind this product—to enable one amplifier to power multiple speaker pairs, each with a separate volume control and impedance protection to safeguard the amplifier.

Sony str-dh190 input and output to three zones, however there is no audio; after connecting one zone, there is still no audio (tested 6 and 8 ohms), any further suggestions?

Ensure that the amplifier volume is at least 50%–75% higher than the input volume (Bluetooth, aux from phone, or aux). The Monoprice SS-Pro may now be turned up. Depending on what you have it hooked into the back, it should be on 8 ohm, the button pressed in (in the on position), and select either A or B.

Is the knob for volume control, r-l, or l-r switching?

I appreciate you asking. The volume is controlled by the knobs, one for each zone. Between the knobs that activate/deactivate each zone are button switches.

Can I simultaneously play two 8 ohm pairs, one of which is nominally rated at 6 ohms, with this Monoprice amplifier?

You ought to be capable. I used it that way for a time before later adding a third pair with no issues on 8 ohms. The 6 ohms should be alright, however you may need to increase the level because they might be louder since they are just 6 ohms and not 8 ohms. Ensure that your amplifier can handle it.

Is it possible to turn on two or more zones simultaneously? Or perhaps simply one zone at once?

Any zone may work simultaneously.

Are transformers or resistors used to match impedance?

The Monoprice SS-Pro Speaker Selector is a resistor-based, impedance matching speaker selector that can connect up to four pairs of 4-ohm or 8-ohm speakers while still maintaining a safe impedance load for your amplifier or receiver, according to their website. Also, it works really well.

Can one speaker have two volume controls? I would explain why I’m asking, but there isn’t enough space in the text box for that.

No, not from what I understand. You may choose between using this unit as your main volume control and the one on your amplifier as a limiter.

Okay, but I just need this for one speaker, therefore I need something similar.

The Russound tbl-75 will function. Mono Price does not produce a tabletop model.

I intended to attach this device to a number of speakers and two subwoofers. Will the device be connected to Marantz’s SR5014 receiver’s “zone 2”?

I think you need to connect the Zone 2 preouts from your Marantz receiver to a separate amplifier (I have a Denon DRA-800H receiver that is comparable). Next, attach that amplifier to your Monoprice SS-Pro device.

When I connected to my Sony amp, the loudness significantly decreased; did anyone else notice this or is my amp broken?

Yes, I did catch it. The SS-Pro is set to 40% of its dial while the stereo was previously set to 20, and is now at 33.I’ve attempted a 4-channel setup, but the zones were horribly off. I’m pleased with these outcomes.

Is there a remote control?

No, there is no remote control.

What kind of speaker plug input is there?

Euroblocks, often known as speaker terminal blocks (those green blocks on the back that you can remove and reinsert with the cables secured in them). amazing results using cables of standard gauge.

Is it possible to listen to all zones at once?

We appreciate you contacting us. In response to your question, you can use all zones at once.
