Section 3—Connecting Your ULW-10 Subwoofer
When making your connections, be sure to use a high quality and reliable interconnect cable. It should
be shielded and long enough to do the job, but not excessively long. Your subwoofer cable is likely to
be the longest interconnect in your system.
The simplest connection between a home theater receiver or processor and your ULW-10 Subwoofer is
directly from the pre-amp output to the LFE input on the ULW-10. See figure 3.1.
If used with a 2-channel integrated amplifier, or any source without a dedicated sub/LFE output, you
will need to use a Y-splitter to join the L and R low-level output from your preamplifier or receiver.
Often,
Tape
or
Monitor
outputs will provide an appropriate low-level stereo signal if the dedicated
output does not exist.
Note: you may use the tape out as a last resort as the volume level is fixed and
you need to adjust the level control on the back of the subwoofer anytime you change the main
volume control.
