10 CSB Corner Subwoofer

Example 6: Speaker Out/High Level In for 1 Subwoofer

This is the most common method for connecting a subwoofer to a system without a dedicated subwoofer line out or preamp outputs. The signal that comes from the High-Level Output jacks is hi-pass filtered to prevent overdriving the satellites with deep bass frequencies.

You can connect to the High-level inputs by removing 1/2" of insulation from each wire end, twisting the strands of wire together and placing the wire into the appropriate terminal's hole on the rear of the subwoofer while pushing the adjacent latch as illustrated.Be careful that no stray strands of wire touch across connections.

It is important to observe polarity while making speaker connections: red (+) terminals on the amplifier to red (+) on the speaker, black (–) on the amplifier to black (–) on the speaker. Look carefully at the wires you are using and note that one of the wires in each pair will be marked by either the conductor color, printing on the wire jacket, a ridge on one side of the wire jacket, or a thread intertwined with the wire strands. By convention, the marked wire is connected to the red (+) terminal.
