CONNECTIONS—SUBWOOFER TOWERS

8-Ohm Connection

This connection method is safe for all amplifiers (see figure 51).

2-Ohm Connection

This connection is the loudest, but draws the most power from the amplifier (see figure 52). If using this connection method, make sure your amp can handle 2-Ohms.

4-Ohm/Bi-Amp Connection

Use this connection method if you wish to use two ampli- fiers to drive the subwoofer towers (see figure 53).
