SUB-100 & SUB-120 Performance.

Connecting Your Subwoofer

Low level -RCA- audio input connection:

This is the best way to drive an audio signal into the subwoofer. Today, all signal processors(5.1/6.1 and more advanced ones) come equipped with built-in pre-amplifier outputs (RCA) that include a subwoofer output. Generally, the SUB/OUT is in mono format. As shown in the photos across, connect the SUB/OUT from the processor to the subwoofer using a "Y" connector to feed both RCA inputs of the subwoofer. We strongly recommend that you use the best available RCA connectors and cables. High quality cables are normally triple shielded, and the connectors are gold plated with forceful grasping (refer to Earthquake line of accessories- SI superior Interconnect - at www.earthquakesound.com).

High level audio input connection:

This is the least desired way to drive an audio signal into the subwoofer. Older stereo systems are not equipped with pre-amplifier audio outputs, normally they come with stereo speaker outputs (left & right). Using "banana" plugs, connect the speaker outputs to the corresponding Subwoofer high level inputs (marked "FROM RECEIVER). In this configuration, the front stereo speakers (towers) can be powered up by connecting them to the subwoofer speaker outputs. The amount of power (watts) driven into the stereo speakers (towers) is identical to the amount of power (watts) fed into the subwoofer from the stereo system (ratio 1:1).
