–6–
channel inputs. The subwoofer combines the bass signal from both channels.
Whichever method you use, the signal is passed through the variable low-pass filter
(adjustable via the Frequency Control knob) for seamless matching of the subwoofer
to the main/satellite speakers.
Using High Level inputs
On the rear of your subwoofer is a panel designated ‘HIGH LEVEL OUT / HIGH LEVEL
IN’. This panel contains four pairs of speaker terminals. These should be connected to
your amplifier and/or speakers as marked - each pair of terminals is marked left or
right and is colour-coded black (negative) or red (positive).
ALWAYS connect red to red and black to black between your
amplifier/receiver and subwoofer and, if used, between subwoofer
outputs and main/satellite speakers. If you accidentally reverse one
of the connections (ie red to black), you will notice a lack of bass
from your subwoofer and the acoustic image from your main
speakers may be poorly defined.
Start by connecting the right speaker output of your
amplifier/receiver to the right input of the subwoofer, then repeat
for the left channel, and so-on.
Using High Level outputs
If you connect your main speakers to the High Level outputs, you
will reduce the amount of bass produced by your front speakers,
taking some load off them and letting the subwoofer do the work.
This is especially helpful if your main speakers are small.
Using the Line Level connections
This method used RCA-to-RCA cables to connect the ‘SUBWOOFER OUT’ jack or the
‘PRE-OUT’ jacks on your A/V receiver to the ‘LINE LEVEL INPUT’ on the rear panel of
your subwoofer.
Connect the Subwoofer Output on your A/V receiver or processor
to EITHER L or R input.
If using Pre-Out jacks, connect left to left and right to right and
bass signals from both channels will be combined within the
subwoofer. This setup does not remove low frequencies from your
main speakers. Their output will also produce some of the
subwoofer frequencies, which you may prefer.
