LFE Inputs
(LFE = Low Frequency Effects)
Inputs for line level subwoofer signal from the LFE or Subwoofer output connector on your surround
sound receiver.
• XO-Active
- Use this input if you would like to use the built-in crossover on the front of the
amplifier.
• XO-Bypassed
- Use this input if you would rather use the crossover frequency set by your
receiver.
Snap-In Speaker Cable Input and Output Connectors
Used to obtain the audio signal from existing speaker cable in the instance that an LFE Signal is not available from
your receiver.
In the event your receiver does not have a dedicated line-level LFE or Subwoofer output connector, you can get the
needed signal by connecting speaker cables from your receiver’s Left & Right Front output connectors to the SDA-
120’s rear INPUT connectors and then connecting speaker cables from the SDA-120’s rear OUTPUT connectors to
your Left & Right Front speakers.
Note:
This connection would not be needed if your receiver has a dedicated LFE or Subwoofer output connector.
