Hookups

■Connecting a Rear Subwoofer

By using both Front and Rear Subwoofers, the CINEMA-DSP sound field programs can produce realistic movie effects with powerful, dynamic sound. To take advantage of this dynamic sound, be sure to set the 1C. REAR L/R SP item in the SET MENU to “LARGE” (see page 41), and connect your Rear speakers and Subwoofer as shown below.

1Connect the right + input terminal on your Subwoofer to the REAR R + terminal, and the right –input terminal on your Subwoofer to the REAR R –terminal with speaker cords.

2Connect the left + input terminal on your Subwoofer to the REAR L + terminal, and the left –input terminal on your Subwoofer to the REAR L –terminal with speaker cords.

3Connect your Rear speakers to the output terminals on the Rear Subwoofer.

Be sure to connect the Rear speakers to the Subwoofer with the correct polarity.

Note:

•Adjust the speaker volume for the Subwoofer with the controls on the Subwoofers, not on the RX-V1.
