Setting Up Your BG Z-Sub for Optimum Sound
The Z-Sub Active Subwoofer by BG Corp is the perfect complement to the
entire Z-Series line of loudspeakers. The Z-Sub is a compact yet powerful,
active subwoofer designed to partner perfectly with our loudspeakers for use
in stereo, high performance home theater or multi-channel audio. Or you
may choose to use our Z-Sub with any high quality loudspeaker system.
The Z-Sub consists of one 10” long excursion composite cone woofer
augmented with a 10” down-firing passive radiator, 150 watt RMS class AB
power amplifier and detachable power cord. Features include input signal
sensing Auto/On, phase switch, line-level input, speaker-level input/output,
variable crossover and variable volume control.
Subwoofer Placement, Connection and Adjustment:
Placement –
The Z-Sub should be placed beside or behind either the left
or right front speaker (see diagram). When using more than one subwoofer
consult with your authorized BG dealer for advanced setup procedures.
Care should be taken when handling the Z-Sub as it contains a bass driver
(aka passive radiator) on the bottom that could be damaged. The feet included
with the Z-Sub help protect the passive radiator and provide the required 1”
(2.54 cm) clearance from the floor to the passive radiator.
Connections
1. L&R line-level input jacks.
These inputs are designed for low-level
RCA component connections and interconnects derived directly from
your receiver or processor. If your receiver or processor only has one
subwoofer output plug it into the Right or Left low-level input.
2. L&R speaker-level / high-level five-way binding posts.
These inputs
and outputs are designed for high-level subwoofer connections and
pass-through loudspeaker interconnections. Five-way binding posts are
provided to accept up to 14 AWG speaker cable.
3. Detachable power cord.
This subwoofer is supplied with a detachable
power cord for ease of installation and transportation.
