NHT SW10 User Manual page 6

Preamps with Line Out jacks: connect one pair of Line
Out cables to your main amp to power your main L & R
speakers, and a second pair to the SW10II OR SW12
LINE LEVEL INPUT. If your preamp has only one pair of
Line Out jacks, you can use a pair of "Y" connector
cords, available through your NHT dealer.

Amps and receivers with Pre-Out jacks: connect the
SW10II OR SW12 from the Pre-Out into the SW10II OR
SW12's Line Input.
2) Hi-Level
Use if:
Your receiver has no Pre Out or Subwoofer/LFE Out
jacks
To connect for a High-Level signal (Fig. 4), use two addi-
tional pairs of speaker cables, and connect as follows:
For amps and receivers with separate A and B speak-
er outputs, connect one pair of speaker cables from your
receiver's Speaker A outputs to your main L & R speak-
ers, and a second pair from your receiver's Speaker B
outputs to the SW10II OR SW12's High-Level Input. Use
this method only if both A & B speaker outputs can oper-
ate simultaneously.
For amps and receivers with only one set of speaker
output terminals, simply feed the same signal, in parallel,
to both your main L & R speakers and the SW10II OR
SW12. Connect one pair of speaker cables from your
Main Speakers

component's speaker output terminals to the L & R
speakers, and a second pair from the same output ter-
minals to the SW10II OR SW12's High-Level input. The
SW10II OR SW12's input does not present a significant
load to the receiver, and will not compromise its output to
the L & R speakers. If you find that your receiver will not
accommodate more than one cable per output terminal,
check with your NHT dealer for alternative methods of
connection.
