Dolby Pro Logic® (Non-Digital) – Line Level

USE THIS INSTALLATION METHOD FOR DOLBY PRO LOGIC APPLICATIONS (NOT DOLBY DIGITAL, DTS OR OTHER DIGITAL PROCESSING), WHERE THE RECEIVER/ PROCESSOR IS EQUIPPED WITH A SUB- WOOFER OUTPUT, OR A VOLUME- CONTROLLED PREAMP (LINE-) LEVEL OUTPUT:

Use the supplied RCA-type interconnect cable to connect the line-level subwoofer output on your receiver or amplifier to either the left or right Line-Level Full-Range Input ¶ on the SUB-TS15 subwoofer. Use both the left and right inputs on the subwoofer if your receiver or processor has both left and right line-level outputs. In that case, you will need to supply a second interconnect cable.

If your receiver is equipped with line-level out- puts but does not have a separate subwoofer output, use a Y-adapter (not supplied) to bridge the receiver’s preamp output to the main amp input for that channel, and connect the long end of the adapter to the corre- sponding line-level input on the SUB-TS15.

IMPORTANT: Do not use the SUB Input

§on the subwoofer with Dolby Pro Logic processors.

If your receiver/processor has a built-in low- pass-crossover filter for the subwoofer out- put, you may use the SUB Input § to bypass the subwoofer’s internal crossover.

Connect each speaker to the corresponding speaker terminals on your receiver or amplifier.

Make sure that you have configured your surround sound processor for “Subwoofer On.” The front left, front right, center and surround speakers should all be set to “Small.”

When all connections have been made, plug the AC power cord on the subwoofer into an AC outlet.
