(1) INPUT LEVEL SWITCH

To select HIGH or LOW level to suit the output level of
the source.
With HIGH: the acceptable input level is 2.5 volts and
suitable for pre-amplifier or CD player
With LOW : appropriate input level is 1.0 volt  and suit-
able for tape deck or phono stage

When the overflow indicator on front panel of SSP-5
lights up or blinks, you should select the HIGH position.
If the indicator light is still seen, then the input source
level should be reduced eg by using attenuators on the
inter-connects.

(2) INPUT A and B

The INPUTS for connecting the source devices. Two such
sources can be connected.

(3) MONITOR OUT

This is the line-output and can be used to connect an
optional device like the SS-Adp2. The output will be iden-
tical to the signal entering in to INPUT A or B . The maxi-
mum output level is 1.0 volt.

(4) FRONT MAIN / CENTER AUX IN

These can be used as an aux input to connect an op-
tional device such as the SS-Adp2.

(5) SWITCH for FRONT MAIN
      / CENTER AUX IN

The FRONT MAIN/CENTER (8) output signal is varied
by this switch as follows:

FRONT MAIN position:  The signal put into INPUT A or
B will be the output.

CENTER position: the signal put into CENTER AUX IN
will be the output.

(6) FRONT AUX IN

For use as an AUX input to connect an optional device.

(7) REAR AUX IN

For use as an AUX input to connect an optional device.

(8) FRONT MAIN / CENTER OUTPUT

This output will be as set by the switch at (5).
When the switch at (5) FRONT MAIN/CENTER AUX IN
is set to the FRONT MAIN position, the output will be
the signal entering into INPUT A or B. When the switch
for FRONT MAIN/CENTER AUX IN is set to the CEN-
TER position, the output will be the signal going in to the
CENTER AUX IN and can be used to connect a power
amplifier for the side speakers.

(9) FRONT OUTPUT

The output signal will be the combined signal from the
source (input A or B) and the signal put in to FRONT
AUX IN and can be used to connect a power amplifier
for the front speakers.

(10) REAR OUTPUT

The output signal will be a combined signal made up of
the SuperStereo rear processing signal and the signal
put in to REAR AUX IN. This can be used to connect a
power amplifier for the rear speakers.

(11) POWER CABLE

To be plugged into a suitable AC power supply.
