Stereo Connection - Low Level Sub Output

This is the preferred connection method if your receiver has a "Subwoofer Out" on its rear panel. Refer to your receiver or amplifier owner's manual for specific hook-up information.

The powered subwoofer is connected to the receiver's subwoofer output jack by a shielded audio signal cable with RCA plugs at each end.

NOTE: Your subwoofer is supplied with two low-level inputs (L&R), but if your receiver or processor has a single sub-out connector, connect it to the input labeled “5.1 sub input” or you can use a “y” plug to connect to both the left and right inputs. We recommend use of a “y” plug which will give you a +3dB boost in output.
