SYSTEM CONNECTION DIAGRAM 3:
One Dominion™ in Mono to a
Two-Channel Audio System
When connecting a single Dominion™
in mono to a two-channel audio system,
you will use both the "Left" and the "Right"
"Line Inputs" of the Dominion™.
Ideally, you will employ bass
management (crossover) features built
into your preamplifier (if available), or
a dedicated active crossover (like the JL
Audio CR-1) to split the left and right
signals between your subwoofer and main
speaker amplifier. In these scenarios, the
subwoofer will connect to the dedicated
subwoofer output(s) of the active crossover
or preamplifier. Use good-quality audio
interconnect cables with RCA-type
connectors to make these connections.
If you are not using an external active
crossover or bass management built into
your preamplifier, you can simply split
the audio signals at the outputs of your
preamplifier using Y-adaptor cables
(splitters). Then, run a two-channel
audio cable to the subwoofer from these
Y-adaptors, and connect this cable to the
Left and Right Line Inputs of the subwoofer.
In this scenario, you should engage the
low-pass filter on the Dominion™ to apply
low-pass filtering to the signal feeding the
subwoofer's internal amplifier. The signal
to the main speaker amplifier will remain
full-range.
