Product Description

An Ordinary Speaker Selector Can Degrade Amplifier Performance
Many people demand the flexibility and convenience of using multiple speakers throughout the house - even outdoors. If you hook up more than one speaker pair to your amplifier, however, the impedance (ohms) may drop to a dangerously low level, stressing your amp beyond its limits, causing circuitry damage or shutdown. You may avoid this potential nightmare by connecting your speakers to a multiple speaker selector. However, ordinary speaker selectors can also degrade system performance. Although they use a resistor "in series" to protect your amp from low impedance loads, these ordinary inductive resistors can cause noticeable high frequency loss, so you hear less detailed music reproduction. The power rating is often low, potentially damaging your speaker selector if you're using a high current amplifier.

Monster Delivers an Unbeatable Combination of Performance, Convenience and Amplifier Protection
With the Monster Cable Speaker Selector, you can enjoy the convenience and flexibility of listening up to four speaker pairs at a time, in any location. With Monster's advanced Amplifier Protection circuitry, you'll have the comfort of knowing your amplifier is delivering maximum power and performance. When engaged, this impedance matched circuitry maximizes high power amplifier performance and allows you to safely use up to four speaker pairs simultaneously without overloading or damaging your amplifier. The Monster Cable Speaker Selector features high quality materials for maximum reliability and durability, Non - inductive 50 watt resistors with aluminum finned heat sinks are specially designed to deliver peak power from even mega-powerful amplifiers - up to 150 watts per channel . These precision - crafted resistors improve frequency response, so you'll enjoy fuller, more three dimensional music reproduction. And, all the connections to the circuit board are completely wired with high performance Monster Cable for the best possible sound.

Get All The Performance You Paid For
With Monster Cable Speaker Selector, you'll be able to enjoy music anywhere in the house, while protecting your amplifier from damage and maximizing the performance of your entire music system.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not for a serious Audiophile setup, October 15, 2005
Dissapointing. The sping-loaded connectors at the back of the selector are not particularly strong, so thick or rigid cables under tension (e.g. twisted at odd angles) easily slip out. The depth of the connectors is also not great, so wires cannot be inserted very far to compensate for the lack of traction. Connections might be better using Monster Cables' own Angled Gold Pin connectors, but I didn't try those.

3.0 out of 5 stars Monster Cable SS4 Multi-Speaker Selector review, June 19, 2008
By B. Amundson "Brad the builder" (Knoxville, Tennessee USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I think this Monster Cable SS4 Multi-Speaker Selector is a very good product. I would have given it 5 stars if not for the weak tension-grip receivers, ...not really strong enough for heavy wire, in my opinion. If you use 14 gauge wire, it's a little tricky getting the wires in the receiving holes without unraveling the ends. Don't use this model if you plan to use heavier wire (12 gauge) unless you use other connectors. I did hook up four sets of speakers using 14 gauge wire, and sounds great. Be sure to place it in a place that doesn't move around a lot to assure good contact on those connections.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outrstanding Performance! With no Signal Loss!, December 27, 2007
By R. Hummel III "capthummel" (Los Angeles, CA (USA)) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
We moved into a new home last February with Monster wired cables and connectors throughout the house that fed speakers to every room from a central stereo cabinet.

I bought a new receiver and utilized another brand of Speaker Selector that came with the house, and could never, never get adequate volume levels. Then I mysteriously could not get both channels in some of the rooms. After many attempts at debugging, I thought maybe my unit had died, so I looked around and saw this Monster Cable unit on AMAZON.

It's WONDERFUL! I now have more volume than I know what to do with in all the other rooms of my house, and signal is crystal clear.

Monster may be a bit more expensive, but they totally delivered and exceeded expectations with this speaker selector!

Highly recommend!
