Introduction
Congratulations on choosing an Atlantic Technology Powered Subwoofer. Our
subwoofers feature proprietary amplifiers and special high excursion woofers. The
sealed acoustic suspension cabinet configuration provides extended, tight, deep bass in
a compact, room-friendly design.
Connection
Atlantic Technology Powered Subwoofers are simple to hook up, offering several
connection methods for maximum flexibility. Study the system diagrams starting on
page 5. Once you have found the example which most closely matches your system,
hook up your subwoofer(s) as shown in that diagram.
Low-Level Connection
For best performance, we suggest using the low-level (RCA style jacks) subwoofer line
out or preamp outputs if your receiver/amplifier has them. Simply connect your
subwoofer with high quality shielded cables as shown in the diagrams.
High-Level Connection
Alternately, you may use the high-level (speaker) inputs. Make sure to match the type
and gauge speaker wire used to connect your main speakers. Be certain that no stray
wire strands are touching across the two terminals as this might damage your amplifier
when you turn it on.
We recommend that you connect your subwoofer using high quality wire of 16 gauge
or larger for lengths up to 25 feet. There are many manufacturers who specialize in
speaker wire and interconnects suitable for your new system. We recommend that you
consult your local audio/video specialist for more specific information.
Warning: To prevent risk of electrical shock or damage to your equipment, always unplug all
component AC cords before proceeding with speaker and component connections.
