Connecting the Speakers
Read the following before connecting your speakers:
• Turn off your receiver or amp before making any con-
nections.
• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before
making any connections.
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. Connect
positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals,
and negative (–) terminals to only negative (–) termi-
nals. If the speakers are wired incorrectly, the sound
will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.
• Be careful not to short the posi-
tive and negative wires. Doing so
may damage your amp.
Use the supplied cables to connect each
speaker’s input terminals to the corresponding
speaker output terminals on your receiver.
Match the color of each cable to the corresponding
speaker terminal.
To make a connection, while pressing
the terminal lever, insert the wire into
the hole, and then release the lever.
Make sure that the terminals are grip-
ping the bare wires, not the insulation.
Using the supplied RCA cable, connect the sub-
woofer’s LINE INPUT to your receiver’s SUB-
WOOFER PRE OUT.
Power Cord
Precautions
• Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your
speakers and AV components.
• Turning on the SKW-750 may cause a momentary
power surge that might interfere with other electrical
equipment on the same circuit. If this is a problem,
plug the SKW-750 into a different branch circuit.
Adjustment
To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT
LEVEL control. Set it so that bass sounds are evenly bal-
anced with the treble sounds from the other speakers.
Because our ears are less sensitive to very low bass
sounds, there’s a temptation to set the level of the sub-
woofer too high. As a rule of thumb, set the subwoofer
level to what you think is the optimal level, and then back
it off slightly.
