listen to the system with music playing and switch between 0° and 180° while
listening for a change in mid-bass output. The correct position will have a higher
amount of apparent mid-bass output.
5.
SPEAKER LEVEL IN: If your amplifier lacks both a dedicated subwoofer output or
preamplifier outputs, connect the stereo speaker outputs on your amplifier to the
SPEAKER LEVEL IN inputs using 2 speaker wires (not included).
6.
LINE IN/SUB IN: If your amplifier has a dedicated subwoofer output (usually labeled
SUB or LFE), use a mono RCA cable (not included) to connect the SUB/LFE output
on your amp to the left (L) input on the subwoofer. Alternatively, you can use an
RCA splitter cable (not included) to connect it to both the L and R inputs. If your
amp does not have a dedicated subwoofer output, but does have a preamplifier
output, use a stereo RCA cable (not included) to connect the stereo preamplifier
output to the L and R inputs.
7.
POWER: Use the switch to turn the subwoofer ON or OFF. If you are using the Auto
Standby feature, the switch should be left in the ON position.
8.
120V ~ 60Hz: Plug the power cord into a nearby AC power outlet. The subwoofer
requires a nominal 120 VAC, 60Hz power source.
CONNECTING TO YOUR SYSTEM
Connecting to a SUB/LFE Output
The best connection to the subwoofer is using a dedicated subwoofer output, if your
amplifier has one, using a single, mono RCA cable (not included). Perform the following
steps to connect the subwoofer to a dedicated SUB/LFE output on your receiver or
amplifier. Note that any receiver that can decode Dolby Digital
™
or DTS® soundtracks will
have a dedicated SUB/LFE output.
1.
Power off and unplug all equipment to be connected.
2.
Using a single, mono RCA cable (not included), plug one end into the LINE IN/SUB IN
L input on the subwoofer, then plug the other end into the dedicated SUB/LFE
output on your amplifier.
