MK Sound V-850 - Manual (Page 6)

your system with multiple filters. If your receiver or controller is THX-certified or Dolby Digital AC-3 capable, you do not need
the BMC-MINI. All Dolby Digital AC-3 and THX certified controllers and receivers have the proper high and low-pass filters built
in. See Figure 2 below.
This filter will give you greater dynamic range, lower distortion, and an increased maximum output level. If you have any
questions about using them, please contact your dealer or M&K.
For wiring, see the BMC-Mini owner's manual.
USING SPEAKER WIRE CONNECTIONS
Some M&K subwoofer owners hook up their subwoofer by connecting it to their receiver or amplifier using speaker wires.
To do so, you make the same kind of connections that you would use for your satellite (or main) speakers, except that both the
left and right channels go to the subwoofer. (If you are using two subwoofers, connect one channel only to each subwoofer).
1. Run speaker wire between the Amplifier's Left channel output terminals and the Subwoofer's Left channel
"FROM AMPLIFIER" terminals.
a. Connect the Amplifier's Left channel Positive (+) terminal and the Subwoofer's Left RED (+) "FROM
AMPLIFIER" terminal.
b. Connect the Amplifier's Left channel Negative (—) terminal and the Subwoofer's Left BLACK (—)
"FROM AMPLIFIER" terminal.
2. Make matching connections for the Right channel. See Figure 3.
