Connections
The S1616A has many rear panel connections so it is important to label cables with their
destination or source correctly.
Use high quality line level RCA connector type cables for source connections to ensure the lowest
possible noise and best sound performance.
For most applications, use 16AWG 2 conductor speaker cable. For wiring runs longer than 80 ft., it
is recommended to use 14AWG 2 conductor speaker cable. The S1616A's high quality, gold plated
5-way binding post will accommodate speaker cabling sizes up to 12AWG. Attaching banana plugs
will enable the connection of larger cable sizes.
3.5mm mono interconnect cables may be used for amplifier / channel triggering.
Line Level Audio Inputs
Connect line level input audio by inserting RCA cable into the audio input connectors.
