Setting up the System
Installing the SoundTouch™ SA-4 amplifier
Locate the SA-4 amplifier indoors, close to an AC (mains) power outlet. It does not
need to be close to your speakers.
™
The SoundTouch SA-4 amplifier weighs 11 lbs (5 kg). It can be placed on a floor,
on a shelf, or mounted on a wall. See page 30 for wall mounting instructions.
Consider the following caution statements when selecting a location for your
SA-4 amplifier.
CAUTIONS:
• The SA-4 amplifier must be used indoors. It is neither designed nor tested for
use outdoors, in recreational vehicles, or on boats.
• DO NOT mount the SA-4 amplifier on a surface that is not sturdy enough,
or that has hazards concealed behind it, such as electrical wiring or plumbing.
• The wireless adapter connects to the SA-4 amplifier with a 6 foot (1.8 m) cable.
Place the SA-4 amplifier so that the wireless adapter is within range of your
®
Wi-Fi router or network access point.
• Place the SA-4 amplifier and wireless adapter in an area where the maximum
ambient temperature is less than 104°F (40°C).
• For optimum performance, place the SA-4 amplifier in a well-ventilated area.
• DO NOT place the SA-4 amplifier in a completely enclosed area. If adequate
ventilation is not provided, the amplifier automatically protects itself by
reducing its volume level in order to limit its temperature.
• DO NOT place the SA-4 amplifier on any heat-sensitive surface, such as the
finished surface of fine furniture. Like all electrical equipment, it generates
some heat.
• DO NOT use the SA-4 amplifier in a damp location. It is important to prevent
moisture from getting into the system.
Installing the SoundTouch™ wireless adapter
™
The SoundTouch wireless adapter provides the network input for the
SA-4 amplifier. It must remain in range of the Wi-Fi router, and within
™
70 feet (21 m) of the SoundTouch controller.
To keep interference to a minimum and to increase the strength of the Wi-Fi
signal, install the wireless adapter outside of and away from metal cabinets,
away from other audio/video components, and away from direct heat sources.
See page 32 for wall mounting instructions.
Note: If you experience interference with your network connection, place
™
the SoundTouch wireless adapter outside of any cabinet or enclosure
and away from metal objects. If problems persist, see “Troubleshooting”
on page 24.

Setting up the System
Connecting speakers to the SA-4 amplifier
CAUTIONS:
• Use only unpowered speakers. DO NOT connect any make or model of
powered speakers. Doing so may cause damage to the equipment.
™
• The SoundTouch SA-4 amplifier requires a 6-ohm minimum load.
Speaker cables consist of two insulated wires. Often, one wire is marked (striped,
colored, or ribbed), indicating it should be connected to the positive (+) terminal.
The plain wire should be connected to the negative (–) terminal. For recommended
wire sizes and lengths, see “Speaker cable recommendations” on page 27.
1. Disconnect the SA-4 amplifier from AC (mains) power.
2. Remove the terminal block connector from the SPEAKER OUTPUTS
connector on the rear panel of the SA-4 amplifier.
3. Use a small, flat-head screwdriver to connect the left speaker cable to the
L positive (+) and minus (–) terminals of the 4-pin terminal block connector,
and the right speaker cable to the R positive (+) and minus (–) terminals.
