POWERED SUBWOOFER INTRODUCTION Congratulations! You have just made perhaps the most exciting and dramatic addition that you could make to your audio or multichannel audio/video system. The new dimension of deep and powerful bass provided by your M&K Deep Bass Powered Subwoofer will thrill and excite you. -
Page 5: Subwoofer Hook-Up
SUBWOOFER HOOK-UP There are two different ways to connect the Subwoofer to your system. One uses speaker wire, and the other uses inter- connect cable with RCA-type jacks. If your receiver or processor has a SUBWOOFER OUTPUT RCA-type jack, use it. This is the preferred connection for your M&K subwoofer. -
Page 6: Using Speaker Wire Connections
USING SPEAKER WIRE CONNECTIONS Some M&K subwoofer owners hook up their subwoofer by connecting it to their receiver or amplifier using speaker wires. To do so, you make the same kind of connections that you would use for your satellite (or main) speakers, except that both the left and right channels go to the subwoofer. -

AMPLIFIER" terminal. Make matching connections for the Right channel. If your Amplifier has two sets of speaker outputs (e.g., A and B), you can connect the satellites to one set and the subwoofer to the other. But if you get weak or no output when you connect your speaker this way, connect both sets of speaker wires to the same output terminals. -
Page 8: Satellite/Subwoofer Phasing Test

In some cases, the difference will be just enough so that the output from the subwoofer arrives out of phase with the output of the satellites. -

This connection insures that a full bass signal is fed to the subwoofer. If your component doesn't have a subwoofer output jack, connect the Subwoofer to the front Left and Right channel speaker outputs (do not use the Center channel speaker output). -

Either the preamp, receiver, or surround sound processor is generating the thump, and the Subwoofer is reproducing it. To eliminate this problem, switch to the speaker wire "FROM AMPLIFIER" input terminals. If you hear a persistent hum or buzz through the Subwoofer: Because the Subwoofer reproduces the 60 Hz hum frequency, it is often blamed for causing hum that originates elsewhere in the system. -

POWERED SUBWOOFER the Subwoofer's speaker driver, the Subwoofer is the source of the hum. If you hear no hum or less hum, the problem is probably coming from another component. Hum can also be caused by AC ground loops. If the Subwoofer is plugged into a separate AC outlet, try plugging it into the same outlet used for your amplifier or receiver, or reverse the polarity of its AC plug. - Page 12 POWERED SUBWOOFER V-850/V-851 subwoofer manual PN # 70041 08/20/02 rev.1 pt/qrk...
