CONNECTIONS AND CONTROLS

CAUTION: Ensure that the subwoofer is unplugged from the AC wall outlet

before making any connections.

“LINE IN” Connection - Most of today’s surround receivers (and pre-ampliﬁers)

have a line level subwoofer output labeled Subwoofer Pre Out, Sub Out, SW

Out, etc. If you have this output, connect one end of a subwoofer cable to it

and connect the other end of the cable into the subwoofer line input labeled

LEFT/LFE. This connection allows the subwoofer to operate with both music

and surround sound movies (refer to your receiver manual). In absence of a

subwoofer output on your receiver, as an alternative hookup, you can connect

Left and Right channel Pre-Amp Outputs from your receiver (if provided) to the

Left/LFE and Right input on the subwoofer.

“LOWPASS” Control - The crossover point chosen determines where low bass

frequencies are “handed off” from the speakers to the subwoofer. If setting the

crossover point in the receiver, turn the Lowpass Filter knob on the subwoofer

to the farthest point right (160Hz). Set the crossover point based on the size

of the main left/right speakers you are using in the system. As a general rule,

for larger, ﬂoorstanding speakers, set the crossover point between 50Hz-90Hz.

If using small bookshelf or “satellite” speakers for the mains, set the crossover

point between 90Hz-150Hz. The smaller the speaker, the higher the setting until

the bass frequencies blend well between the speakers and your subwoofer once

your system is completely hooked up. If your receiver does not have a crossover

point setting, set the Lowpass Filter on the subwoofer instead within the same

recommended settings (see receiver manual for additional speaker setup info).

Level

- If your subwoofer is connected to a Subwoofer Output of a surround

receiver, ﬁrst set the subwoofer volume level control in the receiver to the “half

way” or “0 dB” position. Then increase the volume (or gain) of the subwoofer up

until the subwoofer’s volume level matches the output of your main speakers.

After this setup is completed, the volume control on your system’s main ampliﬁer

or pre-ampliﬁer will be the volume control for both your subwoofer and speakers

together. If your subwoofer is connected to the L/R Pre-Amp Outputs of a receiver

there will be no subwoofer volume in that receiver to set before setting the

subwoofer’s gain control.

“PHASE” 0/180

– This control is used to acoustically match the subwoofer’s

output to your main speakers. Select the position either 0˚ or 180˚ in which your

subwoofer has more output at the listening position.

Off/Auto/On

– When this switch is in the “ON/AUTO” position, the subwoofer

will automatically turn “on” when it senses a signal. It will automatically go into

“standby mode” after 15-20 minutes with no signal. When this switch is in the

“OFF” position, the subwoofer will remain “off” until the switch is manually turned

back to the “ON/AUTO” position.

Power LED indicator - Located on the front bafﬂe, this LED indicates the

operating status of the built-in ampliﬁer. The LED will light green when the

ampliﬁer is on and receiving a signal. If the LED is dark and not lit, the ampliﬁer

is off. For more information on the controls mentioned in this manual and on

bass management, see your dealer or visit www.klipsch.com
