System Configurations

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 con- nection. 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 inde- pendent subwoofer vol- ume control. Make sure this is correctly adjusted, and that the Sunfire Subwoofer’s crossover frequency is set to 100 Hz. This is by no means an iron-clad rule, rather it is a good starting point. (See the crossover fre- quency control details on page 6 and adjustments on page 18).
