WARNING! TURN OFF THE FATHOM AND ALL OTHER EQUIPMENT IN THE SYSTEM BEFORE MAKING OR CHANGING ANY CONNECTIONS!

SYSTEM CONNECTION DIAGRAM 1: One Fathom to

Home Theater Receiver or

Home Theater Preamp/Processor

Most home theater receivers and preamp/processors provide a single (mono) subwoofer output. When connecting a mono subwoofer output to your Fathom, you will only use the Fathom’s “Left or Mono” input.

Two connection types are available for connecting the Fathom to your home theater system: balanced (XLR or 1/4- inch TRS connector) and unbalanced (RCA-type connector). Balanced connections provide superior noise rejection and ensure proper grounding between components. If your receiver or processor has balanced outputs, we highly recommend that you use them.

In the connection diagram at left, balanced connections are shown as solid lines, unbalanced connections are shown dotted. You will only use one of these input connection methods (not both).
