  • Page 6: Installation

    Installation Cables - RCA unbalanced When installing your new subwoofer using unbalanced RCA connections, you should use high quality shielded phono cables. Poor quality cables may pickup interference and result in hum or noise. Keep the length of cable as short as possible and route all input signal cables away from power cables to reduce the potential for induced noise.
  • Page 7 Caution This subwoofer has electronics built into the cabinet and must be properly ventilated. Do not place the rear of cabinet against a wall, you must allow room for adequate ventilation of the amplifier (at least 2 inches). Do not place the subwoofer next to heat sources, such as furnace registers, radiators, etc. Do not place the subwoofer near sources of excessive moisture, such as evaporative coolers, humidifiers, etc.
  • Page 8 Multiple subwoofers When connecting multiple subwoofers using RCA signal connections, you will need to use “Y” cables (signal splitters) to route your receiver/processor output to each woofer if it does not have multiple “SUBWOOFER” output jacks. Another option is to use an XLR to RCA adapter to convert your receiver/processor RCA signal ouptut to an XLR connection, which allows you to use the XLR “DIRECT PASS-THRU”.
