Getting Started

Connecting to an amplifier with a single set of speaker terminals

If your amplifier is equipped with a single set of speaker terminals, connect the woofer to the amplifier, and then connect the front speakers to the woofer.

What cords will I need?

Speaker cord (supplied) (1 for each speaker)

Twist the stripped ends of the cord about 15 mm. Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate terminal on the components: + to + and – to –. If the cords are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass. It is useful to decide that the speaker cord marked with a line is always the negative (–) and should be connected to the negative (–) terminal to avoid any improper connections.

Hookups1Connect the woofer to the amplifier.

Connect the SPEAKER IN terminals of the woofer to the amplifier’s speaker terminals with the speaker cords. Be sure to connect both L and R channels.

What cords will I need?

Speaker cord (supplied) (1 for each speaker)

Twist the stripped ends of the cord about 15 mm.

When using the double (A + B) sets of speakers, make sure that you select the “A + B” position with your amplifier.

Note

When you are using speaker terminal (A) only (front speaker only) or when the power of the amplifier is turned off, turn down the volume or turn off the power of the woofer otherwise, hum noise may be heard.
