(6)HIGH PASS CROSSOVER Switch

This switch selects the frequency for the high pass crossover. This crossover is functional on both line and speaker-level outputs. Smaller speakers with limited low frequency output may perform better using the higher 100 Hz setting that will reduce the low frequencies sent to them. Larger speakers with greater low frequency output may be able to handle the 80 Hz setting without strain.

(7)SPEAKER LEVEL INPUT Terminals

Connect these input terminals to the speaker output terminals of your amplifier or receiver. If you use this method of connection, when you go to the receiver speaker set up menu, make sure you select the large speaker option

(8)SPEAKER LEVEL OUTPUT Terminals

Sends a crossed-over speaker-level signal to the front speakers. See below for a more detailed explanation of this crossover.

Rear Panel Connections – Detailed Explanation

Your new subwoofer is equipped with both speaker-level and line- level inputs. Use the RCA/Phono type “INPUT” jacks when connect- ing your subwoofer to a pre-amp, signal processor, or line-level crossover. The “SPEAKER LEVEL INPUT” jacks connect directly to the speaker outputs of an integrated amplifier or receiver. Your amplifier section will notice no additional loading effects when you use these inputs because of their high impedance.

Note:

Do not use both the RCA/Phono “INPUT” connections and “SPEAKER LEVEL INPUT” connections simultaneously.

Low-Pass Crossover

Both sets of inputs sum the left and right channels together and the resulting signal is passed through an adjustable low-pass crossover before being amplified. The crossover control allows you to adjust the upper limit of the subwoofer’s frequency response from 40 to 120 Hz. The subwoofer’s response will begin rolling off above the frequency you set this control to.
