Speaker Level Connection
If your receiver does not have a line-level audio sig¬
nal output or if you wish to bypass this output, you
need to connect your receiver's speaker outputs to
the speaker level inputs of the subwoofer.
First, prepare two suitable lengths of speaker wire.
You can use lightweight (18-22 gauge) speaker wire
because this wire will not carry any significant elec¬
tric current. Also, wire larger than 18 gauge will be
somewhat harder to connect in tandem with another
speaker wire.
Strip off 5/8' of insulation from one end of each
speaker wire. Strip of 3/8* of insulation from the
other end. This end connects to the Speaker Wire
Connector Plug.
Connect the speaker wires to your receiver's Left
and Right speaker outputs (Front Left and Front
Right speaker outputs of a multi-channel receiver).
You will have to 'parallel connect" these wires with
the main speaker wires (see diagram). Positive
speaker output torminals will usually be colored red
and have a V' symbol. Negativo speaker output
terminals will usually be colored black and have a
symbol. Connect the other end of the wire to the
green speaker connector plug. Remove the plug
from the subwoofer for easier access to the screws.
