How do you hook up a speaker selector to a Sony Home Theater System in a box?

I have recently purchased an outdoor rock speaker for my patio and I am trying to hook it up to my reciever but there are no more speaker connections. My Sony receiver is already connected to my home theater system which has 6 speakers with no more connections left to hook up this rock speaker. I have purchased a speaker selector but can’t figure out how to hook everything up? The speaker selector that I have purchase is from Radio Shack. Any advice would be great!

A speaker selector from Radio Shack is going to select from different pairs of speakers. Consequently you will only hook up the output from your L&R main speakers to the input on this selector. One of the outputs will go to your home theater main L&R speakers. The other will go to your rock speaker. If this is a dual voice coil speaker it will have inputs for both the left and right channels. If it is a single voice coil speaker you will only have input for the positive and negative of one channel. If it only has input for one channel, you will have to play your music in mono when listening outside. None of the other channels will be affected by this hook up. You will, however, have to run a test tone to readjust the level for your main L&R speakers afterward. The speaker selector causes signal loss even when the outdoor speaker is not engaged.
