System Confi gurations

The following pages show some typical

con nec tions that you might make in your
in stal la tion. They show how the inputs
and outputs of the Sunfi re Subwoofer
are con nected to your pream pli fi er or
receiver.

If your preamplifi er has a

subwoofer output (often labeled LFE
for Low Fre quen cy Ef fects), it can be
con nect ed to the sub woof er’s Left
(Mono) input as shown. This is the
simplest and rec om mend ed con-
nection. A receiver with a sub/LFE
output can be con nect ed in the
same way.

The sub woof er will play the low

frequency range and the other
speakers will play the frequency
range delivered to them by your
amplifi er.

If you have a Home

Theater pream pli fi er,
it may have an in de -
pen dent subwoofer vol-
ume control. Make sure
this is correctly ad just ed,
and that the Sunfi re
Subwoofer’s cross over
frequency is set to 100
Hz. This is by no means
an iron-clad rule, rather it
is a good starting point.
(See the cross over fre-
quency control details on
page 6 and ad just ments
on page 18).

You can set the sub woof er’s Vol-

ume control to 0 dB, and then use the
preamplifi er’s sub woof er level control for
normal and routine ad just ments.
