 Does what it should November 11, 2008
M. Lyons (Cincinnati, Ohio)
I work in a professional office and needed to distribute the music to 8 different speakers. I liked the idea of a speaker selector and was comparing the Monster vs the Niles. From what I can tell, same prodcut but the Monster was much less expensive. A Sony DA receiver powers the system and it works great. I even bridged the output to some of the speakers to obtain mono and the selector has not tripped yet. I'm using 18 gauge wire, so experienced no issues with the terminals as reported by some. Highly recommend!

I received the Monster Cable SS-4 Speaker Selector the other day and was doubtful when I first opened the package. DON'T BE !!!! This is an excellent product and is better than advertised. It was easy to install, works great, clear sound, no decrease in power. Had no problem with the speaker connections clamps, used 16 gauge wire. Shop around for best price, but would be hard to beat at any price.

 18 gauge wire or thinner only August 14, 2008

I should have read what an earlier reviewer said. The spring loaded wire connectors in the back will not hold even moderately thick speaker wire. If you are using 18 guage or thinner (cheap) wire, this might work. If you are running thicker wire - like most higher end setups - it won't work. I use 12 gauge and 14 gauge speaker wire and couldn't even get the wires to go into the cheap connectors on the back of the unit. I return very few items, but had to return this one.
 Monster Cable SS4 Multi-Speaker Selector review June 20, 2008

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. br /Brad
