ge over the connections on one only of the loudspeakers. If in cor-
rect phase, the image should be distinctly located between the
loudspeakers with a slight loss of bass and low midrange level.
If the image is confused and not centrally located and there is a
drastic loss of bass and low midrange level, recheck your connec-
tions.
HOME THEATER CONNECTIONS WITH
AN ACTIVE SUBWOOFER
Subwoofer positioning
With a crossover point below or around 150 Hz, the installa-
tion position of subwoofers is not limited as human ears and
brains are not able to identify the emitting point of such low
frequencies. To get the best result, it is recommended to try dif-
ferent positions and choose the one giving the best response
in the low frequencies, taking into account the room acoustics.
Hooking up the subwoofer
2 possibilities are offered to connect the subwoofer with your
system:
■
the low level one requiring the use of the
Cinch RCA LINE IN
7
and
LINE OUT
8
terminals and shielded coaxial connectors,
■
the high level one requiring the use of the
FROM RECEI-
VER
9
and
TO SPEAKERS
0
terminals and standard loud-
speaker cables.
The inputs are stereo ones, the mix of the
L (left)
and
R (right)
low frequencies being done by the amplifier of the subwoofer.
If the input signal is already mono, only one input
L (left)
or
R
(right)
should be used.

If your preamplifier or your integrated amplifier is fitted with
a stereo low-level output, then connect its
L (left)
and
R (right)
outputs to the
L (left)
and
R (right) LINE IN
9
inputs of the sub-
woofer. If your amplifier offers a one mono output, connect it
to either the
L (left)
or the
R (right)
subwoofer

inputs.
■
Connections from the LINE OUT

The signal from the
L (left)
and
R (right) LINE OUT
8
connec-
tors is the one being brought in by the
L (left)
and
R (right) LINE
IN
7
connectors filtered at 40 Hz. These outputs can thus
be used to bring the signal to the amplifier powering the main
loudspeaker.
Interconnections with the speaker terminals
■
Connections to FROM RECEIVER
9
plugs
If the preamp section of your Hi Fi or audio-video system is not
fitted with a low level output, you should then connect the
subwoofer by using its loudspeaker terminals. When connec-
ting the
L (left)
and
R (right)
speaker outputs of your amplifier
to the
FROM RECEIVER
9
plugs of the subwoofer, be careful
not to cross (-) and (+) cord of either
L (left)
or
R (right)
chan-
nel. Such a phase inversion might damage your main amplifier.
■
Connections TO SPEAKERS
0
plugs
These outputs can be used to bring the signal to the main
loudspeaker systems.
The signal from the
L (left)
and
R (right) TO SPEAKERS
0
plugs is the one being brought in by the
FROM RECEIVER
9
connectors. These outputs can thus be used to bring the signal
to the main loudspeaker systems.
Power supply
The
AC in
-
cord must be connected to the mains to supply
the subwoofer. The selection of the right voltage 115 V - 230 V
is done with 115 V - 230 V
