The first type of protection circuitry which prevents overdriving of the speaker or amplifier operates constantly without being audible under most situations. In some extreme situations (sustained high output levels such as pro sound usage), the unit may shut down momentarily. This indicates operation of the thermal or undervoltage protection circuitry.

Line-level Connection Figure 1 shows connection to a pre-amplifier's main outputs and returning them to your amplifier inputs. When installed in this fashion, your satellite speakers will be crossed over at 80Hz which removes the lower bass from your amplifier and speakers, enabling them to do a better job reproducing high frequencies.

Volume control This control allows you to balance the output from the subwoofer to the main speakers/amplifier in your system. This control should be set to achieve similar output level from both the main speakers and subwoofer when listening to music.
