If your processor does not have
a Sub/LFE output, you can use
“Y” cables (or Y adaptors) to send
its left and right main outputs
to both the subwoofer and your
amplier.
The subwoofer will play the low
frequency range, and your front
speakers will play the full range.
Although bass is commonly
distributed evenly between left
and right channels (L+R bass),
movie soundtracks often contain
differential (L-R) bass. If this is
not preserved, the bass
in these scenes
sounds anemic. The
subwoofer utilizes
differential gain on
the left and right
inputs to retain both
the L+R and L-R
information.
Systems that do
not have a dedicated
Sub/LFE output
should use both
the left and the right
inputs as shown, for
the greatest bass impact.
