If you are using a pream pli Þ er

which does not have a sub/LFE
output, you can send its left
and right front output into the
sub woof er’s Line Level inputs
and then connect the sub woof -
er’s High-Pass outputs to the
inputs of your ampliÞ er.

The subwoofer will play

the low frequencies and your
ampliÞ er and front speakers
will play the fre quen cy range
above the subwoofer’s Þ xed
high-pass crossover point.

The signals coming

out of the subwoof-
er’s high-pass
outputs are not
affected by any of
the controls. They
are just a copy of
the signals going
in except that the
low bass is Þ ltered
out. This uses
the sub woof er’s
passive crossover
network, rather than
the active network
and con trols.

This is an excellent method if your

speakers are small satellites or mini-
monitors, and/or your power ampliÞ er is
of limited power, such as a tube amp.
