Setup

Connecting the Power

AC Voltage Select: Since this subwoofer contains its own amplifier, it must be connected to a
power outlet using a standard IEC cable (included). Before connecting the subwoofer to a
power outlet, set the AC Voltage Selector to the proper setting for your location: 115 V (for
the USA and Japan) or 230 V (for most of the UK and Europe).
Warning: Setting an improper voltage selector setting may result in hazardous conditions
and/or damage to speaker components not covered by speaker warranty.

Connecting Audio

Two-Channel Stereo Operation
Connect the main left and right outputs of your mixing console, audio interface, or sound card
to the subwoofer's XLR Inputs, TRS Inputs, or RCA Inputs, and then connect the
subwoofer's left and right XLR Outputs or TRS Outputs to your direct-field, full-range
monitors.
While the TRS Inputs and TRS Outputs will work with unbalanced cables, we strongly
recommend using balanced cables, which provides better immunity to inductively coupled
noise from power cables, etc. For balanced wiring, use this wiring configuration:
•
XLR Pin 1 or TRS sleeve: signal ground (shield)
•
XLR Pin 2 or TRS tip: signal positive (+)
•
XLR Pin 3 or TRS ring: signal negative (–)
