Solved! Active speakers on new STR-DN1080 - how to connect line level

[TDS76]

I have a pair of active speakers that I would like to connect to my Sony STR-DN1080. These two components may be separated into a turntable system and a home theater system later, which is why I’d rather not replace either piece. I have a Kicker KISLOC line level converter, but don’t understand how to connect the speaker wires to my receiver. Can someone help me understand?

That adapter does not look like it's really hard to connect, the wire connects to the speaker terminal, the L/R outputs on the other side would go to the speakers.

Shoot, I don’t think I was clear. The RCA side is obvious, but the speaker wire side isn’t clear to me - the adapter has 5 wires and the receiver has 2 posts to connect to. I guess I’m asking how do I specifically connect 5 wires to 2 posts?

You'd have to look at the manual of that device, never used one. It should say what the wires are for. You should have 4 total speaker connections, two for left and two for right.
