Step 3 Connect source components to the SSP rear panel.

If necessary, refer to the Rear Panel section in this manual for a detailed

can also provide useful suggestions for what source components you should add

to your system and guidance in setting them up.

Make sure you keep a detailed record of the rear panel

connectors that you used while connecting the source

components!

the setup menus. An Installation Worksheet is included at the end of this manual

to assist you.

NOTE: In the Sigma SSP default settings, eighteen input

connectors are associated with corresponding source selections

within the Source Setup menu. Since most users will have fewer

sources connected, the Source Selection page(s) can be simplied by

unchecking the Enable Source box for each unused input. Doing so

removes the corresponding Source button from the Source Selection

page. See the Menu System section for details.

Step 4 Connect the power amplifier(s) to the Sigma SSP rear panel.

Important!

Verify that the power amplifier(s) is plugged in but powered

OFF before connecting to the SSP!

For the Front Left and Right channels, we recommend using high quality cables

with XLR connectors.

NOTE: ese pin assignments are consistent with the standards

adopted by the Audio Engineering Society. Refer to the operating

manuals of your balanced-input power ampliers to verify that the

pin assignments of their input connectors correspond to the Sigma

SSP. If you are using Classé ampliers, this note does not apply.

If needed, the pin assignments of the XLR-type male output

connectors are:

Pin 1: Signal ground

Pin 2: Signal + (non-inverting)

Pin 3: Signal – (inverting)

Connector ground lug: chassis ground
