NOTE: Power is always supplied to the VPS 210 electronics unless it is unplugged or switched to the o position using the
power switch located on the top panel. The auto-on circuitry only activates or deactivates the power amplier. Make sure
your subwoofer and receiver are unplugged when making connections.
Power Connection: Connect the power cord to the power input.
Then plug the power cord directly into a wall outlet. Some audio
receivers components provide auxiliary power outlets We suggest
that you do not use them. They may not be able to provide the
amount of current or proper isolation required by a power ampli-
er, such as the one in the VPS 210.
Connecting to a Digital Home Theater
System Using the LFE Input
Digital 5.1, 6.1 and 7.1 home theater electronics
dedicate one channel (the “.1”) to reproduce the
speciallow-frequency(LFE)information(suchas
explosions and thunder) contained in digitally-
encoded soundtracks.
Select ”subwoofer-yes” from your receiver’s set-up
menu. Hooked up this way, the receiver’s amplier
is relieved of having to reproduce the dicult low bass signals that can drive the receiver into audible distortion. In some
cases it can also depend on several other settings within a receiver. We recommend consulting your receiver manual for
further assistance in this area.
