CONNECTIONS:
Complete all wire connections in your Home Theater / sound system before powering up your
subwoofer or your receiver (amplifier). Be sure to observe proper polarity for all speaker wire connections
(+ to +, - to -). To obtain the best performance, use only speaker wire of 12, 14, or 16 gauge (available
from your dealer). Lightweight speaker wire (18, 20, 22 gauge, etc.) will result in degraded performance;
16 gauge wire may be used for short runs of about 8 feet or less.
CONNECTION OPTION #1 - Using The Line Input(s) :
To use the subwoofer’s LINE INPUT(s) your receiver must have a dedicated "subwoofer output" jack
(sometimes called Sub Out, Low Pass or LFE), or pre-amp left & right channel outputs. If your receiver
has these outputs you may connect your subwoofer using standard (coaxially shielded) RCA cable(s)
(the same kind of audio cable used to connect your CD, tape deck, etc.). This method is generally the
easiest to hook-up.
•
If your receiver has a subwoofer output jack, simply connect your subwoofer, using the Mono / L Line
Input jack, to the subwoofer output jack on your receiver (refer to the Option #1 wiring diagram above).
