Use this installation method for Dolby Digital, DTS or other digital surround processors:

Use the line-level input jack marked “LFE” for the Low-

Frequency Effects channel. Connect this jack to the LFE output or subwoofer output on your receiver or amplifier. Connect each speaker to the corresponding speaker terminals on your receiver or amplifier.

Make sure that you have configured your surround sound processor for “Sub- woofer On.” Also configure

your receiver for 5.1-channel operation, as appropriate. The front left, front right, center and surround speakers should all be set to “Small.” If your receiver allows you to set the crossover frequency between the subwoofer and the main speakers, select 100Hz or the setting that is the closest frequency below it.

Use this installation method for Dolby Pro Logic applica- tions (not Dolby Digital, DTS or other digital processing), where the receiver/processor does not have a subwoofer output, or a volume-controlled preamp (line-) level output:

Connect your receiver or amplifier’s front left and right speaker terminals to the left and right terminals on the subwoofer that are marked “Speaker Level In.” Connect the left and right terminals

DOLBY PRO LOGIC® (NON-DIGITAL) – LINE LEVEL

on the subwoofer that are marked “Speaker Level Out”

Use this installation method for Dolby Pro Logic applica- tions (not Dolby Digital, DTS or other digital processing), where the receiver/proces- sor is equipped with a sub- woofer output, or a volume- controlled preamp (line-) level output:

Use RCA-type interconnects to connect the line-level subwoofer outputs on your receiver or amplifier to the line-level inputs on the sub- woofer. IMPORTANT: Do not use the LFE input on the sub- woofer with Dolby Pro Logic processors.

NOTE: If your receiver or amplifier only has one sub- woofer output jack, then you will need to use a Y-connector (not included). Plug the male end of the Y-connector into your receiver or amplifier’s subwoofer output jack, and connect each of the two female ends to separate RCA-type interconnects. Finally, plug the RCA-type interconnects into the line- level inputs on the sub- woofer.

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

Make sure your receiver or processor is correctly con- figured to indicate that the subwoofer is “On.”

Note for advanced users: If your receiver/processor has a built-in low-pass crossover filter for the subwoofer out- put, you may use the LFE input to bypass the sub- woofer’s internal crossover.

to the corresponding termi- nals on the back of your front left and right speakers.

Connect your receiver or amplifier’s center, surround and surround back speaker terminals to the correspon- ding terminals on the back of your center and surround speakers.
