Using High Level Connections (see Diagram 1)
On the rear of your Mirage subwoofer cabinet is a block designated “High Level”. This
block contains two pairs of speaker terminals. These should be connected to speaker
output terminals of your amp./receiver. Each pair of terminals are color coded black/red.
NOTE: These terminals will accept up to 18 Gauge speaker wire.
REMEMBER: Always connect red-to-red and black-to-black, when making the
connections between amp/receiver to subwoofer. If you inadvertently reverse
one of the connections (ie. red-to-black), you will notice a lack of bass from
your subwoofer.
Using the “Subwoofer Output” of an A/V Receiver or
Processor
(See Diag. 2 Low Level Connection1)
This method uses a single RCA-to-RCA interconnect cable to connect the
“SUBWOOFER OUTPUT” jack from your A/V receiver or processor to the subwoofer
“INPUT”.This method does not remove low frequencies from your main speakers,
and they will continue to reproduce bass frequencies.
Using External Crossover (See Diag. 3 Low Level Connection 2)
This method uses a single RCA-to-RCA interconnect cable to connect the
“SUBWOOFER OUTPUT” jack from an external crossover to the “XOVER INPUT”
of your subwoofer. This method by-passes the subwoofer’s built-in low pass crossover
and level control, thus, all subwoofer functions are controlled by the external crossover.
