Using the speaker level inputs

If you are using a receiver which does not have a sub- woofer output or line level outputs (pre-outs), you can connect its speaker outputs to the subwoofer’s speaker- level inputs. The front speakers can still be connected to your receiver.

The subwoofer’s internal amplifier supplies the power to reproduce the low frequency range. It receives a sample of the signal going to your front speakers. (An insignificant frac- tion of your receiver’s power is transferred to the subwoofer).

If you are using the line level inputs and there is a excessive amount of noise or hum present, using the speaker level inputs may yield a lower background noise level.
