Connect the amplifier/receiver’s speaker
output terminals to the subwoofer’s
HIGH
LEVEL INPUT
terminals. Be sure to
connect the terminals in phase, connecting
positive (+) to positive and negative (–) to
negative. Wiring the subwoofer with + to –
causes reduced bass performance. To
match the subwoofer’s polarity with your
system’s polarity and receive full bass
response, slide the
PHASE
switch to
REV
or
NOM
. Choose the setting that provides
the greatest bass output.

If you use Megacable or any other high-
quality, low-gauge speaker wire, the
terminals will be too small to
accommodate the wires from both the
speaker (left or right) and the subwoofer.
You need two pairs of speaker pins (RSU
10458503) to make the connection.
Follow these steps to connect the wires to
each terminal using speaker pins.
1. Twist together the ends of the wires
from the left (or right) speaker’s
positive terminal and the amplifier/
receiver’s left (or right) positive
speaker terminal.
2. Position the twisted wire ends
between the open barrel ends of the
speaker pin.
3. Using a pair of pliers, crimp the open
barrel ends of the speaker pin to hold
the wire ends in place.
4. Plug the speaker pin into the proper
terminal on the subwoofer.
