A. THE SUBSERIESTM 1
1. Connecting Home Theater Equipment (SEE FIGURE 3, page 16): You
can use a single RCA cable to connect the Subwoofer Output of your
receiver, integrated amplifier, or preamplifier to either right or left side
of the Low Level Input on the subwoofer.
Home Theater receivers, integrated amplifiers, surround sound proces-
sors, and preamplifiers usually have a special Subwoofer Output to
provide the optional (Dolby Digital 5.1) Low Frequency Effects (LFE)
Channel present on many movie and other programming sources. To
reproduce these deep-bass effects (when they are present), supple-
menting the bass information in the main channels, this output must
be connected to the subwoofer.
The subwoofer output/LFE signal is filtered by most receivers/proces-
sors. The subwoofer's variable low pass filter is usually not required
and should be bypassed by switching the LFE Input/Crossover bypass
switch to active only if the receiver/processor subwoofer/LFE output is
low pass filtered. The default position for this switch is off.
With some Home Theater electronics and settings, connecting the
Subwoofer Output does not provide the low frequencies from normal
stereo music through the subwoofer. If this is true of your system,
you can make two connections. First, connect the Subwoofer Output
from the electronics to the right or left side of the Low Level Input of
the subwoofer, as described above. Then also connect the High Level
Output from the electronics to the High Level Input of our subwoofer,
as described below. When listening to music using High Level Input,
set the LFE Input/Crossover bypass switch to the off position. The
switch would usually be set to active whenever the receiver/proces-
sor's Subwoofer Output is used during playback of movies. Most
Home Theater electronics will not require this second connection,
which, if not required, will produce greater bass than intended.
2. Connecting Stereo Equipment Using Low/Line Level (SEE FIGURE 4,
page 17): If your receiver or integrated amplifier has preamplifier out-
puts, or if you are using a separate preamplifier, the preferred connec-
tion is from the Preamplifier Output of the electronics to the Low
Level Input of the subwoofer. Use a dual RCA audio cable.
3. Connecting Stereo Equipment with High/Speaker Level
(SEE FIGURE 5, page 18): You also can get excellent sonic results by
connecting the High/Speaker Level Output of your receiver, integrated
