“daisy-chained” system. The signal from these RCA connectors is the same as the input signal. (10) Line Input / LFE Input Connect these jacks to the LINE OUT preamp output, LFE output, or subwoofer output jacks of your receiver/processor. If using the lFe output from your receiver or processor, plug the single cable into the jack labeled LFE input or, for more signal, use a “Y” connector (optional) and feed the signal into both “R” and “L” inputs.

You may also connect your satellites directly to your receiver or amplifier along with the subwoofer if you wish to bypass this crossover.

UP or crossover doWn buttons. A WORD ABOUT YOUR HOME THEATER RECEIVER’S CROSSOVER AND THE SC-602 AMPLIFIER’S CROSSOVER Your Velodyne SC-602 amplifier is designed to operate using the full range audio signal for input when using the built-in crossover. Many home theater processors/receivers have a “subwoofer out” jack that performs this same function and are designed to be used with a powered subwoofer. -

In these installations, you may want to bypass the crossover in either the processor or the velodyne SC-602 amplifier as described above. However, in some cases you may want to use BOTH crossovers. If you choose to do this you should stagger the frequencies, (i.e., 120 Hz subwoofer, 80 Hz processor) for best results. Note: If not using an external crossover, you should use the subwoofer’s built-in crossover for optimal performance. When using a single RCA sub out from the processor, it does not matter which line level input (l/R) is used. -
Page 16: Selecting The Subwoofer To Be Controlled
SELECTING ThE SUBWOOFER TO BE CONTROLLEd Your SC-602 amplifier can control the Velodyne SC-600 Series subwoofers as well as generic passive subwoofers. Special internal software settings are designed to maximize performance and reliability depending on the model of subwoofer being controlled, so it is important to match the SC-602 amplifier with the subwoofer it is controlling. The SC-602 amplifier comes with a default setting for the SC-600 IW subwoofer. When the unit is first powered up, the model setting is displayed for two seconds on the numeric LED before the display reverts to the volume setting. The subwoofer to be controlled is shown as follows: Note: Both the IF and the IC settings control the SC-600 In-Floor/In-Ceiling (IF/IC) subwoofer and have identical internal settings. -

To reactivate the LED, press the LIGHT button again. • NIGhT — night mode limits the maximum dynamic output of the subwoofer for late night listening or to be more considerate of close neighbors. Press the night button to turn the night mode feature on or off. Activation of night mode causes “n” to appear briefly on the display. When night mode is deactivated, the display shows “n off” and then returns to normal function. www.velodyne.com SC-602 Amplifier User’s Manual - 11... - Page 18 The presets provide the following characteristics for bass reproduction: Movies: Maximum output and impact for explosions and other action adventure movie content.
