your receiver for 5.1-channel
operation, as appropriate.
The front left, front right,
center and surround 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
100Hz 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-connector
(not included). Plug the male
end of the Y-connector into
your receiver or amplifier'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.
DOLBY PRO LOGIC (NON-DIGITAL) – SPEAKER LEVEL
Use this installation method
for Dolby Pro Logic applica-
tions (not Dolby Digital, DTS
or other digital processing),
where the receiver/processor
does not have a subwoofer
output, or a volume-controlled
preamp (line-) level output:
Connect your receiver or
amplifier's front left and right
speaker terminals to the left
and right terminals on the
subwoofer that are marked
"Speaker Level In." Connect
the left and right terminals
on the subwoofer that are
marked "Speaker Level Out"
to the corresponding termi-
nals on the back of your front
left and right speakers.
Connect your receiver or
amplifier's center, surround
and surround back speaker
terminals to the correspon-
ding terminals on the back of
your center and surround
speakers.
