High Level Speaker Wire Connections

Your Deﬁnitive Technology ProSub subwoofer can also be hooked up via high level connections. In this situation, you have the option of running your main speakers “full range” or rolling off the low end by using the high pass ﬁlter built into the subwoofer. For high level wiring, your interconnects are simply equal distance lengths of high quality speaker cable.

To hook up your ProSub subwoofer via the high level connections, simply run speaker cable from the right channel high level connector on the subwoofer to the right channel speaker connector of your receiver or ampliﬁer. Repeat this process for the left channel. Please take care that the red (“+”) terminal on the subwoofer is connected to the red (“+”) terminal on your receiver or ampliﬁer, and that the black (“-”) terminal on your receiver or ampliﬁer is connected to the black (“-”) terminal on the subwoofer. This will ensure absolute phase throughout your system.

Your main speakers can now be connected in one of two ways. If you wish to utilize the high pass ﬁlter built into your subwoofer, simply connect your main speakers to the high level out terminals on the subwoofer. Again, take care to make red to red (“+”) and black to black (“-”) terminal connections. This connection will provide a smoothly contoured roll-off of the low frequencies going to your main speakers. We recommend this hook-up (wiring the main speakers through the crossover in the subwoofer) when using ProMonitors. For more overall
