monitors, as there is very little stray magnetism. Certain types of televisions are particularly sensitive to stray magnetic fields. If your television produces distorted colors after installing your subwoofer, simply increase the distance between your television and the subwoofer until normal color and operation is returned.

Your new Velodyne subwoofer, like any good speaker system, requires proper positioning within the listening space to provide maximum performance. Improperly placed speakers may degrade the sound quality and reduce your listening pleasure. Depending on the size and type of furnishings in the room, perfect placement may not be possible. Finding the best location for your environment will likely require some experimentation. We suggest you experiment with the location during setup to find what sounds best to you when seated in your typical listening position.

Installation

Inputs

Your new subwoofer is equipped with speaker-level and line-level inputs. Use the LINE LEVEL jacks when connecting your subwoofer to a pre-amp, signal processor (such as LFE out), line-level crossover, or receiver with pre-amp level outputs. The SPEAKER LEVEL jacks connect directly to the speaker outputs of any amplifier, integrated amplifier, or receiver. Your amplifier section will notice no additional loading effects when you use these inputs due to their very high impedance.

Note: You do not need to connect both the left and right LINE LEVEL inputs from a single source (such as the LFE out on your receiver/ processor). These inputs are summed together and simply connecting one will provide the same amount of signal to the sub as if you had used a “Y” connector and connected both. If using the SPEAKER LEVEL inputs, you DO want to connect both channels, since different bass information might be present in each channel going to your main speakers.

Important!!!

Do not use both LINE LEVEL and SPEAKER LEVEL connections simultaneously!
