this method of connection, when you go to the receiver speaker set up menu, make sure you select
the large speaker option.
(2) SPEAKER LEVEL OUTPUT Terminals
Sends a crossed-over speaker-level signal to the front speakers. See below for a more detailed
explanation of this crossover.
(3) IR INPUT
This is a connection that allows the utilization of a third party infrared remote sensor, such as Elan or
Xantech, or an extended cable for placement closer to your other remote controlled equipment. This
keeps you from awkward control angles using the infrared remote control.
(4) LINE OUTPUT
Connect these jacks to the LINE IN preamp input to use the DEQ-R’s internal high pass crossover. The
signal fed from these connectors is rolled o below 120 Hz.
LINE INPUT/LFE
Connect these jacks to the LINE OUT preamp output, LFE output, or subwoofer output jacks of your
receiver/processor. If using the LFE output from your receiver or processor, plug the single cable into
the “L” – LFE input or, for more signal, use a “Y” connector (not included) and feed the signal into both
“R” and “L” inputs.
(5) AUTO ON/OFF Switch
Use this switch to select between “stand-by” mode (woofer shuts o after eight minutes) and “always
on” operation.
(6) VOLUME Control
This control allows you to balance the output from the subwoofer to the main speakers in your system.
This control should be set to achieve similar volume level from between both the main speakers
and subwoofer. When pressing volume up or down, set the level while watching the LED display for
reference.
Note: Volume is also controllable by using the supplied remote. When defaults are restored, the default
is 30 out of 80.
(7) LOW-PASS CROSSOVER
Use this knob to select the frequency above which you wish to cut o the signal to the subwoofer.
When the knob is turned all the way to the left, the Subwoofer Direct feature is invoked and the
subwoofer plays all frequencies up to 120 Hz.
Rear Panel Connections — Detailed Explanation
Your new subwoofer is equipped with both speaker-level and line-level inputs. Use the RCA/Phono type “INPUT”
jacks when connecting your subwoofer to a pre-amp, signal processor, or line-level crossover. The “SPEAKER
LEVEL INPUT” jacks connect directly to the speaker outputs of an integrated amplier or receiver. Your amplier
section will notice no additional loading eects when you use these inputs because of their high impedance.
Note:
Do not use both the RCA/Phono “INPUT” connections and “SPEAKER LEVEL INPUT” connections simultaneously.
