Wiring “out of phase” results in thin sound, weak bass and a poor stereo image. - Page 8 YSTEM If your receiver has a subwoofer output: The RS-8 incorporates two different types of line-level inputs that allow you to optimize the loudspeakers’ performance in your system. If your receiver/processor’ s subwoofer output is already low-passed filtered, meaning the high frequencies have been removed by the receiver, use the subwoofer input labeled Direct.
