Using the Low-level Thruput

If desired, you can run a line level stereo signal through the 172 PBM and out to another unit. This way you can add an additional subwoofer with minimal additional wiring. The signal that comes out of the Thruput jacks is identical to the input signal.

High-Level Connection

Alternately, you may use the high-level (speaker) inputs. As mentioned above, we strongly suggest you use the High-level inputs if you are using ultra-compact satellite speakers that have little or no output below 125 Hz. We recommend that you connect your new 172 PBM Powered Subwoofer(s) using high quality wire of 16 gauge or larger. There are many respected manufacturers in the audio industry that specialize in speaker wire and interconnect cables suitable for your new system. Please consult your audio/video specialist for more specific information.
