User's Manual
If your preamplier does not have
a dedicated sub/LFE output, you
can use “Y” cables to send its
main outputs to both the sub-
woofer and your amplier.
The subwoofer will play the low
frequency range and your front
speakers will play the full range.
Although bass is commonly dis-
tributed evenly between left and
right channels (L+R bass), movie
soundtracks often contain dif-
ferential (L-R) bass. The opening
scene in “Top Gun”, for example,
has loads of L-R bass
information. If this
is not preserved,
the bass in these
scenes sounds
anemic. Therefore,
systems which do
not have a dedicated
sub/LFE output
should use both
the left and the right
inputs as shown, for
the greatest bass
impact.
An alternative con-
nection method without us-
ing Y cables is shown on the next page.
If your preamp/receiver has a dedicated
sub/LFE output, then only one input is
used as shown on the previous page.
