The SLS-4 & 4D are a speaker cable splitter/combiner patch panels for portable and installation amplifier racks. The SLS-4D is essentially an SLS-4 with the addition of 2 more NL8 connectors that are parallel connected to form two pair of parallel connected NL8 outputs on the front panel. Using Neutrik speaker cable jumpers, the amplifier outputs conveniently patch into the rear panel. The output or front panel then combines channels 1 & 2 into a single NL4 connector providing a Bi-amp output marked 1-2. This is repeated for channels A 3-4, B 1-2 and B 3-4. Each of these Bi-amp NL4 outputs are then combined together in their respective A & B groupings, into two (2) NL8 connectors that can be used to feed two different 8 conductor cable with an NL8FC connector allowing flexible patching of 4 full range or two Bi-amp NL4 output connectors in a stage box or into a DISTRO/MATRIX, by moving a single NL8 connection. This enables the user to patch (or parallel connect) two NL8FC cable connections into the same amplifier outputs connected to the box.

DISTRO (SKU: 10042)This is a break-out box that connects the first two contacts (pin 1+, 1-) of an NL4 connector to the first two contacts (pin 1+, 1-) of an NL4 and the other two contacts of the first NL4 connector (pin 2+, 2-) and connects them to the first two contacts (pin 1+, 1-) of a second NL4 connector.� ~ This has the same wiring as a COMBO that uses all NL2/Combo connectors. ~ Applications: This enables two (2) full range speakers to be connected to a single four (4) conductor speaker cable.
MATRIX (SKU: 10082)The MATRIX is an adaptor box that breaks out an NL8 into two (2) NL4’s. The first half of the NL8 connector (Pins 1+, 1-, 2+, 2-) connect to the same pins on the first NL4 connector. The second half of the NL8 (Pins 3+, 3-, 4+, 4-) connect respectively to Pin 1+, 1-, 2+, 2- of the second NL4.
