If your preamplifi er does not
have a sub/LFE output, you can
use “Y” cables to send its main
outputs to both the sub woof er and
your am pli fi er.
The subwoofer will play the low
frequency range and your front
speak ers will play the full range.
Although bass is com mon ly dis-
trib ut ed evenly between left and
right chan nels (L+R bass), movie
soundtracks often contain dif-
ferential (L-R) bass. The opening
scene in “Top Gun”, for example,
has loads of L-R bass in for -
ma tion. If this is not
preserved, the bass
in these scenes
sounds anemic. The
Sunfi re Subwoofer
utilizes dif fer en tial
gain on the left and
right inputs to retain
both the L+R and
L-R in for ma tion.
There fore, sys tems
which do not have a
dedicated sub/LFE
output should use
both the left and the
right inputs as shown, for the great est
bass impact.
An alternative connection method
without using Y cables is shown on the
next page.
If your preamp/receiver has a dedi-
cated sub/LFE output, then only the Left
(Mono) input is used, as shown on the
previous page.
