Subwoofer Wire Connection
The subwoofer features a dual voice coil driver with 4
wires, one pair for each of the amplifier channels. red
(+) and black (-) are used for the right channel, white
(+) and green (-) for the Left channel. The subwoofer
can be connected at any point along the daisy chain e.g.
beginning, middle, end or anywhere in-between. However,
locating the subwoofer mid-way in the daisy chain will
produce an equal amount of bass for the speakers on either
side of the sub. The subwoofer needs to be connected in
the same manner as the satellites speakers (see Figure 4).

IMPORTANT: THE SUBWOOFER HAS DUAL VOICE
COILS, ONE FOR THE LEFT CHANNEL AND ONE
FOR THE RIGHT CHANNEL, IT IS CRITICAL THAT THE
POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE WIRES BE CONNECTED
CORRECTLY FOR BOTH CHANNELS. IF EITHER
CHANNEL IS CONNECTED INCORRECTLY NO LOW
FREQUENCY SOUND WILL BE PRODUCED.
IMPORTANT: BE SURE NOT TO LET ANY STRAY ’+’
AND ’-’ STRANDS TOUCH EACH OTHER. TOUCHING
STRANDS WILL CAUSE A SHORT-CIRCUIT WHICH
COULD DAMAGE YOUR AMPLIFIER.
NOTE: THE SONOS AMP FEATURES A SUBWOOFER
RCA OUTPUT THAT IS NOT USED IN THIS APPLICATION.
THE MAG6.1 SUBWOOFER IS DESIGNED TO BE WIRED
IN LINE WITH THE MAG6.1 SATELLITE SPEAKERS.
Turn your SONOS AMP on and test the system with your
favorite music. If the speakers are operating properly, refill
the wire trench and enjoy your new MAG6.1 SYSTEM.
