output or subwoofer output

Connect each speaker to the

or amplifier.
Make sure that you have
or
®
configured your surround
sound processor for "Sub-
woofer On".
For the SCS260.6 system, the

ured for 6.1-channel opera-

and SCS260.6 systems, the
front left, front right, center
and rear speakers should all
be set to "Small."
If your receiver allows you to
set the crossover frequency
between the subwoofer and
the main speakers, select
120Hz or the setting that is
the closest frequency below
it.
NOTE: If your receiver or
amplifier only has one sub-
woofer output jack, then you
will need to use a Y-connec-
tor (not included). Plug the
male end of the Y-connector
into your receiver or ampli-
fier's subwoofer output jack,
and connect each of the two
female ends to separate
RCA-type interconnects.
Finally, plug the RCA-type
interconnects into the line-
level inputs on the sub-
woofer.
Connect each speaker to
the corresponding speaker
terminals on your receiver
or amplifier.
Make sure your receiver or
processor is correctly con-
figured to indicate that the
subwoofer is "On."
Note for advanced users: If
your receiver/processor has
a built-in low-pass crossover
filter for the subwoofer out-
put, you may use the LFE
input to bypass the sub-
woofer's internal crossover.
