UNPACKING/PRE-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Unpack your new subwoofer carefully, keeping the carton and packing material for
future use. Also, write the serial number in your home records for later reference.
Check the condition of your unit, reporting any damage which may have occurred
in transit to your dealer or shipping company.

GLOSSARY
The following list of terms with their definitions is offered as a help in
understanding the set-up and operation of your subwoofer.
understanding the set-up and operation of your subwoofer.
Crossover (xover) - an electrical filter with lo-pass or hi-pass characteristics that
divides the frequency range into bands of low, middle, or high frequencies to
match the capabilities of specialized loudspeakers like subwoofers that are only
effective at reproducing limited frequency ranges. The crossover frequency is the
frequency where the filter begins to attenuate or reduce the level of the signal.

Full range - refers to signals which cover the entire audio frequency span from 20
Hz to 20 kHz.
Hz to 20 kHz.
Hi-pass - a type of filter circuit that allows high frequencies to pass, while
reducing the level of low frequencies with the transition from high to low occurring
at the crossover frequency. The rate of reduction of the signal is called the
attenuation rate or slope and is measured in decibels (dB) over a change in
frequency of one octave which is a doubling or halving of frequency.

Impedance - the resistance to the flow of current in an alternating current circuit
(such as with music). Line level circuits are typically a high impedance of several
thousand ohms, while speaker level circuits are usually a low impedance of a few
ohms.

Line level - the type of signal produced at the outputs of preamplifiers, tape
decks, CD players, etc., with a typical value of a volt or less in a high impedance
circuit. Sometimes called low level signals, they are routed using shielded cables
which are usually terminated with RCA phono connectors.

Speaker level - the type of signal produced at the outputs of power amplifiers that
may be many volts in a low impedance circuit. Sometimes called high level
signals, they are routed using two conductor unshielded wire of 18 gauge or
larger. Connections are usually made with stripped ends of wire gripped in spring
loaded terminals.

B) For use with A/V preamps and receivers that have 5.1 channel line level
ouputs.
If your preamplifier or receiver has a single “subwoofer” output or “LFE” output,
connect a shielded cable from the preamplifier output to either one of the
subwoofer line level inputs. Refer to Figure E.
