Setting Up
Connecting the LFE subwoofer input
If your receiver or amplifier has a Subwoofer or Low Frequency Effects (LFE) channel output,
use a single RCA male to RCA male patch cord to make the connection. Connect the “LFE/
Subwoofer” input on the left main speaker to the LFE/subwoofer output of your receiver or
amplifier (Figure 7). Refer to the LFE level control section on page 9.

Note:
Now is a good time to record the serial numbers of these speakers on page 3 of this
guide and on your warranty card.
Checking the connections
Check all the connections from the receiver to the left main speaker and from the left main
speaker to the right accessory speaker. Make sure all the wires are connected in phase (+ to
+ and – to –).
Correct any wiring problems before you plug in your receiver or speakers and turn them on.
Plugging in the left main speaker
Once you have checked all the connections, insert one end of the supplied power cord to the
“Power” jack on the left main speaker. Insert the other end of the power cord into an AC
power mains. Plug your receiver or amplifier back into the AC power mains. Then, turn on the
left main speaker power switch (Figure 8). Turning the power switch on puts the speakers in a
standby mode. Finally, turn on your receiver or amplifier power switch.
During normal use, the left main speaker power switch should be left on and the system
should be controlled through the receiver. However, if the speakers will not be used for an
extended period of time, you should turn the left main speaker power switch off.
Note:
The left main speaker power switch must be turned on for the speakers to work prop-
erly. If it is not turned on, there will be no bass.
