Placing Your Subwoofer in a Room
Your subwoofer offers many placement options: in an
entertainment center, behind furniture, or next to a sofa or
chair. You may place your subwoofer anywhere in the room,
but you'll enjoy the best performance when it's on the same
side of the room as your system's front speakers (Figure 1).
Placing your subwoofer near a wall or in a corner will increase
its loudness. When placing your subwoofer in the room, always
place your subwoofer on its base feet side down (Figure 2).
If you can at all avoid it, do not place your subwoofer next
to an open door.

We recommend placing your subwoofer in different
locations within your room to learn what produces the best
sound quality for your listening environment.

Connecting Your Subwoofer
Receivers that include a "Sub Out" feature are the most
common connection method.
• Connect a single RCA cable from the "SUB OUT" of your
receiver to the LFE input of the subwoofer. This connecting
method bypasses the subwoofer's internal filter and relies
on the filter built into your receiver. Do not connect to the
Left or Right RCA jacks when using the LFE input. Do not
use speaker wire to make the connection to the subwoofer.
• Connect all speakers directly to the receiver. When using
this option, adjust your receiver's speaker configurations as
follows: Set Front, Center and Surround speakers to "small."
• Depending on your speakers' bass output capabilities, set
the crossover frequency on the receiver to 80Hz for tower
and bookshelf speakers (speakers with a woofer 5.25˝ in
diameter or larger) and 100-120Hz for satellite speakers
smaller than 5.25˝
Receiver Settings:
• Front, Center, and Surrounds = "SMALL"
• Subwoofer = "ON," or "YES," or "PRESENT"
See your receiver's owner's manual for speaker configuration.

• Connect the left and right preamp output from your
receiver to the left and right LINE LEVEL input of the
subwoofer. Do not use speaker wires.
