“Output to Slave” Connector
If you are operating more than one Fathom subwoofer in one home theater
system, you will designate one Fathom as the Master (see page 20), and then feed
signal from it to the remaining “Slave” Fathoms via this balanced XLR output.
e “Output to Slave” cable can be connected to the “Le or Mono” balanced
XLR input on the next Fathom. When a Fathom is in “Slave” Mode, its “Output
to Slave” connection can be used to pass signal to further Fathoms operating in
“Slave” mode.
e “Output to Slave” connector is designed to be used as follows:
1) From the “Master” Fathom’s “Output to Slave” connector to the rst “Slave”
Fathom’s “Le or Mono” XLR balanced input.
2) From the rst “Slave” Fathom’s “Output to Slave” connector to the second
“Slave” Fathom’s “Le or Mono” XLR balanced input.
3) From the second “Slave” Fathom’s “Output to Slave” connector to the third
“Slave” Fathom’s “Le or Mono” XLR balanced input. Etc, etc. (up to ten
Fathoms may be connected in this con guration).Appropriate balanced
cables with XLR terminations are available from your JL Audio dealer and
are not included with the Fathom.
Technical Notes:
• e “Output to Slave” signal carries any signal processing selected on the
Master Fathom (including the Master Level setting and A.R.O. processing)
to further Fathoms operating in “Slave” mode.
• From Fathoms operating in “Slave” mode, the “Output to Slave” signal is an
exact, bu ered replica of the balanced input signal, making this method of
signal distribution preferable to using
Y-adapters or splitters.
• Use only shielded, connection cables with high quality
XLR connectors for Master/Slave connection. Never use unbalanced cables
with adaptors.
IEC-Style AC Connector
e IEC-style AC cord receptacle receives the heavy-gauge, 6 . (1.8 m) long,
power cord included with your Fathom subwoofer. Your Fathom should only be
powered from a 120 V AC, 60 Hz outlet. Do not use any AC power cord other
than the one supplied with the Fathom.
e Fathom subwoofer is a very powerful device and can draw a lot of current.
If too many components are connected with a Fathom subwoofer to one electrical
outlet, you risk tripping a household circuit breaker during very demanding
program material. If this happens, split the Fathom and other components
between two AC electrical circuits. If possible, for maximum performance,
dedicate an AC circuit to each Fathom.
