c. Connecting the Audio Inputs
• CAUTION: Only make connections when the amplifier is turned off.
• Line Level Inputs (Left & Right) - The line outputs from a preamplifier or receiver can be connected to the line
level inputs of the BBXW10 with RCA cables. If your system has only one subwoofer output, you can plug it into
either the left or right line inputs. Using these inputs will crossover the audio signals that are sent to the Line outputs
at a fixed high pass of 75Hz.
• LFE (Low Frequency Effects) Input - If your preamplifier or receiver has an LFE output, you can use the LFE input.
Be aware that using the LFE input bypasses the amplifier’s low frequency adjustable (low pass) crossover.
• Speaker Level Inputs (Left & Right) - These inputs can be used if your preamplifier or receiver does not have a
subwoofer or set of line output jacks. Connect the left and right pair of main speaker output wires from you amplifier
or receiver to the speaker level input connectors of the BBXW10 amplifier. Then connect a left and right pair of speaker
wires from the BBXW10 speaker output connectors to you main speakers.
d. Connecting the Audio Outputs
• Line Level Outputs (Left & Right) - Sources connected to the line level inputs can be forwarded to other receivers or
amplifiers line level inputs. By doing this you can pass-on the audio signal for use by another component. Connect RCA
cables to the line level output sections of the BBXW10 and the Line level inputs of a receiver or amplifier. Please note
that the BBXW10's high pass crossover will be in effect removing the audio below 75Hz to the connected component.
• Speaker Level Outputs (Left & Right) - Connect a left and right pair of speaker wires from the BBXW10 speaker
output connectors to you main speakers. This method will filter out the low frequencies below 75Hz and send them
to the subwoofer. The high frequencies above 75Hz will be sent to your main speakers. The main speakers will still be
powered by your system's amplifier or receiver.
e. Connecting the AC Power
• Plug the 3-prong plug directly into a 120V AC 60Hz wall outlet. If you wish to plug the amplifier into a preamplifier
or receiver’s switched outlet, make sure it is rated at least 600 watts. However, it is always safer to plug the BBXW10
directly into an AC outlet.
