Connecting the subwoofer
By connecting a subwoofer, you can enhance the bass or reproduce
the original LFE signals recorded in the digital software.
Connect the input jack of a powered subwoofer to the
SUBWOOFER OUT jack on the rear panel, using a cord
with RCA pin plugs (not supplied).
• Refer also to the manual supplied with your subwoofer.
NOTE
You can place a subwoofer wherever you like since bass sound is
non-directional. Normally place it in front of you.
