POWER & SIGNAL CONNECTIONS

Before making any power connections or signal (line level or speaker level) connections,

please make sure the subwoofer power switch is turned OFF.
Connect the subwoofer power cord to the subwoofer amplifier and to an AC outlet. Using

convenience outlets located on some AVR receivers or pre/pros is NOT recommended for

your subwoofer as these outlets are not meant for high power devices.

Signal Connection Options:

A/V Receiver (AVR)/Processor (PRO) Connection

This is the most common form of connection. The AVR/PRO will perform the upstream

digital bass management and send the subwoofer a pre-filtered mono signal.

• Using a high quality and shielded RCA cable, connect the AVR/PRO subwoofer

output jack to the Line Level R/LFE input on the subwoofer amplifier.

• Set the low pass filter to LFE.

• Set the phase control to 0 degrees.

• Set the gain to between 10 o’clock and 12 o’clock.

• Turn-on the hard power switch.

• Run the AVR/PRO auto-set-up routine.

Occasionally AVR/PRO auto-set-up programs will make errors or select non-optimal settings.

Consult with our Sound Experts as needed to double-check the speaker and subwoofer

digital bass management settings in your AVR/PRO set-up menus to ensure optimal

performance from your SVS subwoofer and the entire system.
