AC Connection

Use the low-level (RCA jack) subwoofer line out of your surround sound receiver/processor. Simply connect your subwoofer with a high quality shielded cable as shown in the diagram on page 7. Please consult your processor/receiver manual for further information.

Warning: To prevent risk of electrical shock or damage to your equipment, always unplug all component AC cords before pro- ceeding with speaker and component connections! The last step in wiring your system should be plugging in the AC cords!

Subwoofer Line Out to Low Level In

Run an RCA cable from your receiver’s Sub Out jack to the L/Mono input jack on the back of the subwoofer (Figure 3). If your receiver/processor has stereo subwoofer outputs, connect these to both the L/Mono and R jacks on the back of the subwoofer (Figure 4).

Using the Low Level Output

If desired, you can run a low level signal through the subwoofer and out to another unit.This way you can add an additional subwoofer with mini- mal additional wiring. The signal that comes out of the output jacks is identical to the input signal.

Power Connection

Connect the power cord to an AC outlet only after making all other connections to the subwoofer. This will avoid any

chance of accidentally activating the

subwoofer while wiring. Atlantic Tech-

nology does not recommend plugging the subwoofer into the switched outlet of an amplifier,preamplifier,or receiver.The power demands of the sub-

woofer amplifier may exceed the power rating of the switched outlet and may damage the equipment.

Your subwoofer is totally automatic in its operation. The automatic on/ off circuitry will only activate the subwoofer in the presence of an audio signal from your system.After 7-10 minutes with no signal detected from the rest of the system, the amplifier will shut itself off and go back into standby mode.When the sub is in operating mode, the status LED will glow green. The LED will glow amber in the Standby mode and power consumption in this mode is negligible.Standby operation can be com- pletely bypassed by placing the standby switch on the rear panel to the ON position.
