Getting Connected

Unpacking

Prior to beginning the connection process, carefully remove the unit from its shipping box. It is recommended to reserve the original shipping material in the event that the unit needs re-shipping. Included in the box you will find the Sub-1200, this instruction manual and an AC power cord.

Subwoofer connections

There are a couple of methods for connecting your Sub-1200 to your audio system. One method uses MDP speaker cables, the other method uses RCA interconnect cables. Looking at the rear panel of the Sub-1200, you will see two sets of MDP speaker terminals, one labeled ‘HI-LEVEL IN’, the other ‘HI-LEVEL OUT’, and two sets of RCA jacks labeled ‘LINE IN’ and 'LINE OUT'. The configuration of your existing system will determine how you will connect the Sub-1200.

Connecting to a Dolby Digital or DTS system

All Dolby Digital and/or DTS processors have a subwoofer/LFE output. If you decide to use a subwoofer/LFE output connection (mono) to the Sub-1200, connect an RCA-plugged patch cable from the subwoofer/LFE output to either the "L" or "R" channels of the 'LINE IN' jacks (RCA) on the Sub-1200.

Connecting to a system with separate components

If you only have one set of pre-amp outputs on your amplifier/mixer and need to send the signal to the Sub-1200 as well as another amplifier/mixer, first send the signal to the Sub-1200 via the 'LINE IN' (RCA) jacks, and then from the 'LINE OUT' (RCA) jacks, connect a patch cable to the 'AUDIO INPUT' jacks on your amplifier/mixer.
