Speaker Level Connections
• The subwoofer's Speaker Level Inputs can accept
speaker stripped speaker wires only.
• Make sure that the negative speaker wires never
touch the positive wires as this will short out and
possibly damage your amplifier or receiver.
• This diagram shows all the low power components
sharing a power strip which is connected to the same
outlet used by the amplifier.
• The subwoofer is connected to an outlet on the
same circuit breaker, provided that the total system
current draw does not exceed the breaker current
rating.
• This arrangement will reduce the possibility of an
audible hum in your system caused by a ground loop.
• Whenever possible, keep the power cords away
from the signal cable or speaker wires to prevent any
hum or inference being heard in speakers.
