The QSUB includes an internal passive crossover allowing for 

direct connection to a full range amplifier. The crossover filters 

signals sent to the subwoofer to below 150Hz, ensuring maximum 

impact with minimal distortion. The crossover also offers high pass 

filtered outputs that may be connected directly to low-impedance 

full range speakers. This permits the creation of very cost-effective 

subwoofer satellite systems. 

Wiring connections are made via two terminal strips located on 

the rear of the cabinet. Terminals are provided for the connection 

of two amplifiers channels (L / R) for stereo operation. In addi-

tion, two high-pass outputs are provided to feed satellite speakers. 

A detachable front grille conceals the driver and is secured with 

screws on either side of the enclosure.

INSTALLATION

There are several different installation options available for the 

QSUB subwoofer. Please review all of the installation options to 

determine the one best suited to the site conditions and perfor-

mance objectives.

Step 1 

Identify the location where the speaker will be installed and de-

termine if the wall or ceiling has the structural integrity to support 

the speaker. If unsure, consult with a qualified rigger or structural 

engineer before installation.

Step 

Install the bracket to wall using suitable fasteners. The accompany-

ing illustration (right) shows the bracket mounted vertically in a 

corner between two walls. This is the preferred mounting method 

for the QSUB. Alternately the bracket may be turned on its side 

and mounted in the corner between the ceiling and the wall. It is 

not recommended to use this bracket when it is connected to only  

one surface.

(Another installation option is to suspend the QSUB in free space 

by rigging to the threaded mounting points. There are 12 threaded 

mounting points in total, with three each on the top and bottom of 

the enclosure, two on either side and two on the rear. Rigging must 

only be undertaken by certified professionals using proper materi-

als and techniques. All installations must use a minimum of three 

points when the speaker is rigged.)
