  • Page 5: Prepare For Installation

    P r e p a r e f o r I n s ta l l a t i o n Your new Velodyne subwoofer provides for a number of installation options. Read all the installation information below in order to determine which installation option is best for your system.
  • Page 6: Installation

    I n s ta l l a t i o n Your new subwoofer is equipped with speaker-level and line-level inputs. Use the LINE LEVEL jacks when connecting your subwoofer to a pre-amp, signal processor, line-level crossover or receiver with pre-amp level outputs. The SPEAKER LEVEL jacks connect directly to the speaker outputs of any amplifier, integrated amplifier or receiver.

When using a single channel input (such as a surround sound processor’s subwoofer out or LFE), the auto on/off circuit sensitivity will be affected. When one input channel is used instead of two, the unit will see lower signal levels present at the inputs.
