You now have two options for connecting your Satellite speakers.

SATELLITE SPEAKER WIRING OPTION 1

With this option, you connect the wiring for the Satellites directly to the Subwoofer. There is no performance advantage with this method, but it may require less speaker wire and be more convenient.

1.Run speaker wire between the Subwoofer's Left channel output terminals and the Left Satellite speaker.

a.Connect the Subwoofer's RED (+) "TO SPEAKERS" terminal to the Positive (+) terminal on the back of the Left Satellite speaker.

b.Connect the Subwoofer's Left BLACK ( — ) "TO SPEAKERS" terminals to the Negative ( — ) terminal on the back of the Left Satellite speaker.

2.Make matching connections to the Right channel Satellite speaker. See Figure 2.

V-125 HIGH-LEVEL HIGH-PASS FILTER USAGE

The V-125 has a high-level high-pass filter (other M&K subwoofers do not have this filter). When your main speakers are connected to the speaker terminals on the back of the V-125, the low bass frequencies below about 80 Hz (which the V-125 reproduces) are filtered from your Satellite speakers.

This will significantly reduce the bass demand placed on your main speakers and can make a noticeable improvement in their sound quality, especially in the midbass and lower midrange. The filter may make other subtle changes to the sound quality, however, so you may want to experiment with and without the filter to determine the best configuration for your system.

To use this filter, simply connect the speaker wire from the left and right channels of your amplifier or receiver to the ""FROM AMPLIFIER" terminals on the V-125. Then connect your left and right main speakers to the "TO SPEAKERS" terminals on the back of the V-125. See Figure 2.

If you have a Dolby Pro-Logic system, we recommend that you set the CENTER CHANNEL switch on the Dolby processor or receiver to the NORMAL mode. This provides a low bass filter for the center channel speaker and also insures that the bass from all three front channels is fed to the subwoofer.

This high-pass filter does not operate when the V-125 is connected with interconnect cable using RCA-type jacks. If you want a low (preamp) level Electronic High-Pass filter, contact your M&K dealer.

SATELLITE SPEAKER WIRING OPTION 2

This option has the Satellite speakers directly connected to your amp or receiver. It requires two sets of speaker wires — one set running to the Satellite speakers and the other set to the Subwoofer.

Please note that (except for the V-125) there is no High-Pass filter built into the Subwoofer.

Connect the Satellite speakers to your Amplifier, following the Satellite speakers' instructions. Use the same Amplifier output terminals that the Subwoofer is connected to. Do not, however, connect the Satellite speakers to the Subwoofer.
