The following pages show some typical connections that you might make in your installation. They show how the inputs and outputs of the Sunfire Subwoofer are connected to your preamplifier or receiver.

Connections to a preamplifier’s subwoofer output

If your preamplifier has a subwoofer output (often labeled LFE for Low Frequency Effects), it can be connected to the subwoofer’s Left (Mono) input as shown. This is the simplest and recommended connection. A receiver with a sub/LFE output can be connected in the same way.

The subwoofer will play the low frequency range and the other speakers will play the frequency range delivered to them by your amplifier.

If you have a Home Theater preamplifier, it may have an independent subwoofer volume control. Make sure this is cor- rectly adjusted, and that the Sunfire Subwoofer’s crossover frequency is set to BYPASS. This is by no means an iron-clad rule, rather it is a good starting point. (See the crossover frequency control details on page 6 and adjustments on page 15).
