System Configurations
The following pages show some typical connections
that you might make in your installation. They show
how the inputs and outputs of the Earthquake sub are
connected to your pre-amplifier or receiver.
Connections to a pre-
amplifier's subwoofer output
If your pre-amplifier has a subwoofer output (often
labeled LFE for Low Frequency Effects), it can be
connected to the subwoofer's Left (Mono) input as
shown. This is the simplest and recommended
connection. A receiver with a sub/LFE output can be
connected in the same way.
The subwoofer will play the low frequency range and
the other speaker will play the frequency range
delivered to them by your amplifier.
If you have a home theater pre-amplifier, it may have
an independent subwoofer volume control. Make sure
this is correctly adjusted, and that the Earthquake
subwoofer's crossover frequency is set to 100Hz. This
is by no means an iron-clad rule, rather it is a good
starting point.
You can set the subwoofer's Bass Level control on
your receiver to 0dB, and then use the pre-amplifier's
subwoofer level control for normal and routine
adjustments.
