When connecting a subwoofer (separate purchase)

You may wish to add a subwoofer to reinforce the bass frequencies.

When connecting a subwoofer to this system, connect the SUBWOOFER OUT terminal of this system to the INPUT terminal of the subwoofer.

*Ordinary subwoofers, including the Yamaha Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System, are designed so that the amplifier and subwoofer are in the same unit.

*The SUBWOOFER OUT terminal outputs low frequencies from both left and right channels. (The cut-off frequency of this terminal is 200 Hz.)
