Using Sub Out offers an easy way to implement multiple
Abyss' in your audio/video system .

Note: .All additional Abyss subwoofers must run as either
dedicated 2-channel (stereo) or multi-channel (LFE)
subwoofers, but not both .

Signal .Connection:

1 Connect the first Abyss to your system using one of the

five modes previously described .

2 Connect the Sub Out of the previous Abyss to either the

LFE or the Right (or Left) input of the next Abyss using a
quality RCA interconnect . Connecting to the LFE input
allows additional subwoofers to perform as dedicated
LFE channels (see figure 11) . Connecting to the Right
(or Left) input allows additional subwoofers to perform
as dedicated 2-channel subwoofers (see figure 12) .

3 Repeat step 2 for each additional Abyss subwoofer in the

chain using the same input for every connection .

Recommended .Control .Settings:

1 Adjust the control settings of the first subwoofer using

the recommended control settings from the connection
method used to connect the master Abyss with your
audio system .

2 Adjust the control settings of each additional subwoofer

using the recommended control settings from the con-
nection method used to connect the master Abyss with
your audio system .

Note: While the settings of each subwoofer should be

similar, you will probably find that each sub will need
to be tweaked for optimal performance because of its
unique room placement .

Regardless of how you use your subwoofer, experimenta-
tion can often result in better sound . Don't be afraid to
try different settings . You can always return the controls to
their previous locations .
