If you are planning to use long runs (more than 10 feet) of interconnects to connect the line-level LFE inputs of your G5 to your processor, we suggest that you use the balanced XLR inputs.

For runs of interconnect less than 10 feet (3 metres), a single- ended interconnect can be used.

LFE Gain

The G5 has a knob that controls LFE GAIN separately from the BASS GAIN. This allows you to have the G5’s plugged both into your audiophile stereo system as well as your home theatre system at the same time without conflicts. The usual way to control the level of the LFE output is to set the LFE gain to 6 – the twelve o’clock position – and then use the home theatre processors level control to dial in the level. However, having the LFE gain control allows you to tune the LFE if your two systems have completely different gain structure.

LFE Output

Along with the LFE input, the G5 has a unique capability of LFE output. This is a true powered buffered balanced output, and hence, can convert a single-ended input signal into a true balanced output. This buffered output can be used to daisy chain the LFE signal to other LFE inputs including other G5 speakers and separate subwoofers.

Thus, it is possible to channel the LFE signal from your home theatre processor to one speaker, and then from that speaker to another, and to another, and to another!

Distributing the bass is also helpful for reproduction of multi-channel music because you get incredible articulation and detail in the bass all around the room.

The Refinement stage

After following the rough setup guide above, you may not be completely satisfied with the results. We share with you here some of our observations in setting up these loudspeakers.

One rule of thumb you should always keep in mind. Make one change at a time! Do not, for instance, change position of the speakers and make an adjustment to the tweeter, midrange, and bass all at once. Make each of these changes separately and note
