Following are brief descriptions of the controls and connections described in Figures 2 and 4 and 5. More detail
of these connections can be found below:
(1) SPEAKER LEVEL INPUT Terminals
Connect these input terminals to the speaker output terminals of your amplifier or receiver. If you use
this method of connection, when you go to the receiver speaker set up menu, make sure you select
the large speaker option.
(2) SPEAKER LEVEL OUTPUT Terminals
Sends a crossed-over speaker-level signal to the front speakers. See below for a more detailed
explanation of this crossover.
(3) IR INPUT
This is a connection that allows the utilization of a third party infrared remote sensor, such as Elan or
Xantech, or an extended cable for placement closer to your other remote controlled equipment. This
keeps you from awkward control angles using the infrared remote control.
(4) LINE OUTPUT
Connect these jacks to the LINE IN preamp input to use theEQ-MAX’s internal high pass crossover.
The signal fed from these connectors is rolled off below 120 Hz.
LINE INPUT/LFE
Connect these jacks to the LINE OUT preamp output, LFE output, or subwoofer output jacks of your
receiver/processor. If using the LFE output from your receiver or processor, plug the single cable into
the “L” – LFE input or, for more signal, usea “Y” connector (not included) and feed the signal into both
“R” and “L” inputs.
(5) AUTO ON/OFF Switch
Use this switch to select between “stand-by” mode (woofer shuts off after eight minutes) and “always
on” operation.
(6) VOLUME Control
This control allows you to balance the output from the subwoofer to the main speakers in your system.
This control should be set to achieve similar volume level from between both the main speakers
and subwoofer. When pressing volume up or down, set the level while watching the LED display for
reference.
Note: Volume is also controllable by using the supplied remote. When defaults are restored, the default is 30
out of 80.
(7) LOW-PASS CROSSOVER
Use this knob to select the frequency above which you wish to cut off the signal to the subwoofer.
When the knob is turned all the way to the left, the Subwoofer Direct feature is invoked and the
subwoofer plays all frequencies up to 135 Hz.
