We recommend against the use of an extension cord for the AC power. If you are forced to use an extension cord, make certain that it is as heavy duty an extension cord as you can find. The G928 running at full tilt can draw up to 10amps from your power supply, so make sure that whatever you plug your subwoofer into can handle that!

Speaker-level connections

To connect the high level inputs of the Genesis 928 subwoofer, take the output of your power amplifier and, using a good quality speaker cable, connect to the binding posts on the back of the Genesis 928 subwoofer. You may also take the signal off of the back of your main loudspeaker terminals if this is more convenient.

Make sure that you maintain proper polarity. This means that the plus (+) terminal of your amplifier must be connected to the plus (+/red) terminal on the back of the Genesis 928.

Using the high level inputs to feed the

Genesis 928 power amplifier will not degrade the sound quality of either your main system or the Genesis 928 subwoofer.

Line-level connections

As an alternative, you can use the low-level inputs on the G928. Using a high quality interconnect cable, connect your preamplifier’s output to the low level inputs on the back of the subwoofer.

We strongly recommend that you do not use interconnects longer than 10 feet (3.2 meters) to connect the preamplifier outputs to your Genesis 928 subwoofer. On many preamplifiers, using an interconnect that is too long will negatively affect the performance of your preamplifier because of the high capacitance of the cable across the output of your preamplifier.

If your preamplifier does not have two outputs, use a good quality “Y” connector to split the signal. The Genesis servo subwoofer amplifier presents a high impedance load, which is a very easy load to your preamplifier and can be easily used with the “Y” connector with no degradation to your main signal.
