If you have a Dolby Digital or DTS
Ò
receiver/processor with a low-frequency-effect
(LFE) output:
NOTE:
In this case, you do not need to use a Y
connector: Simply connect the LFE output on your
receiver/processor to either the left or right input
on the subwoofer:
If your receiver/amplifier has preamp output jacks
and main input jacks for the left and right
channels or you have a separate
preamp/processor and power amplifier:
This method of hookup can offer the highest level
of performance for your complete loudspeaker
system. Your subwoofer incorporates an
adjustable high-pass crossover in addition to a
variable low-pass crossover. When hooked up as
shown on the right, the subwoofer will limit the
low-frequency information that is returned to your
receiver/amplifier. Your receiver/amplifier does
not need to waste valuable power reproducing
the low frequencies. In addition, since no
low-frequency information is being sent to your
main loudspeakers, they are able to reproduce
mid and high frequencies with greater clarity.
