Caution!!!
To avoid damage to your main amplifier, be sure to maintain correct polarity when making all connections. The correct method is to connect red (positive) to red and black (negative) to black. Be sure that all connections are tight, and that there are no loose strands or frayed wires.

When using speaker level connections, use a decent quality speaker cable that mates well with the connectors. Be very careful to avoid any loose strands or frayed wires which may result in a short, which may damage your equipment. Cables of extremely large size are typically not required. Extremely large gauge wire may not properly fit in the binding posts, resulting in a poor connection and possible short circuits.

Subwoofer Direct
A bypass switch is also provided if you wish to use an external crossover. If you are not using an external crossover, we recommend that you use the one provided within the unit for optimum performance.
Phase adjustment- 0°/180°
This control allows you the "reverse" the phase of the subwoofer's output signal 180° to correct for any possible mismatch and resulting cancellation between the subwoofer and your main speakers/amplifier. To adjust, simply listen to the system with music playing. Then move the switch from one position to the other and listen for a change in low frequency output. The correct position will have a greater amount of apparent low frequency output.
Auto turn on function
With this function in the "auto" position, your subwoofer can be safely left with the main power switch on continuously. The subwoofer will turn itself on automatically when an audio signal is present. If no signal is present for approximately 10 minutes, the unit will switch to standby mode. While in standby mode, your subwoofer will draw very minimal power. Leaving the switch in the "on" position can disable this function.
High pass crossover switch
This switch selects the frequency for the high pass crossover. This crossover is functional on both line and
