Alternate High Level Connection
The alternate method for making high level connections is to connect both the ICS Sub 24 and the main speakers directly to the amplifier. This type of connection does not take advantage of the high pass filter provided by the High Level Outputs of the ICS Sub 24. Consequently the main speakers will operate full range.
There are two connection methods. Both methods are electrically equivalent. Which one you use will depend largely on you physical set up of your room.
One method is to connect both the main speakers and the ICS Sub 24 directly to the amplifier.

The other method is to connect the amplifier to the main speakers and then run extension wires from the main speakers to the ICS Sub 24.
