2. INTRODUCTION Congratulations! Y ou have just made perhaps the most exciting and dramatic addition that you could make to your audio or multichannel audio/video system. The new dimension of deep and powerful bass provided by your M&K VX-series powered subwoofer will thrill and excite you.
Ultimately , the amount and quality of bass you get in your room are dependent on the room itself. Low frequency bass sounds are affected most by the size of the room and the method of construction used to build it.
This will give you better bass quality than using the speaker inputs, because it bypasses your amp or receiver's amplifier stage. T o connect the subwoofer in this way , simply run one or a pair .
If you don't have a subwoofer output available, check to see if you have preamp outputs on your preamp, amp, or processor to be able to use these inputs. If you have only one set of preamp outputs, use a Y -connector to feed both the amplifier and the subwoofer .
2. Y ou can also connect your satellite speakers to the subwoofer . If you choose to do this, connect the amplifier to the "From Amplifier" terminals on the back of the subwoofer and connect the satellite speakers to the "T o Speakers" terminals on the back of the subwoofer .
where the subwoofer sounds in balance with the satellite speakers. If the system is not working properly , unplug the subwoofer and check all of your connections.
