SUBWOOFER CONNECTIONS
Option 1: Low Level Setup This is the recommended method for those ampliers and receivers that are
equipped with a “Subwoofer Out” or “Pre-Amp Out” connection. Virtually all audio/video receivers have this
connection clearly marked on the rear panel. Run a dedicated interconnect cable with RCA connectors from
the subwoofer output jack to the line input on the subwoofer. In this setup, you will be using the internal
crossover on your processor.

Option 2: High Level Input Setup If your amplier or receiver does not have a dedicated subwoofer output,
it will be necessary to connect your new subwoofer directly to the speaker output terminals on the back of the
unit. In this scenario, you will be running high quality speaker wires from the left and right front outputs of your
amplier to the high level inputs on the subwoofer. You will then need a second set of wires to carry the signal
from the subwoofer back to the main speakers.
