AMPLIFIER REQUIREMENTS & WIRING

The SW10WM is a passive (non-powered) subwoofer and must be used with a power ampliﬁer. We strongly recommend the Niles SWA-500 subwoofer ampliﬁer. Use with any other ampliﬁers could result in less than optimal performance.

The SW10WM has two 5-way binding posts that accept all types of wire ends. Be sure to wire the subwoofer “in-phase”—positive (red) terminal on the ampliﬁer output must be connected to the corresponding positive (red) terminal on the subwoofer and likewise negative (black). Most speaker wires have markings along one or both conductors to help you make the correct connections. Take care to wire the subwoofer correctly in-phase, before ﬂoors/ceiling are sealed.
