Klipsch powered subwoofers are designed to reproduce the deep bass and deliver the impact that really makes your movies and music come alive. For optimum performance, place your subwoofer in a corner of the room on the same wall as your front channel speakers. Please note that room placement can have a dramatic effect upon the performance of your powered subwoofer. Corner placement, as suggested above, will increase the amount of bass output, while placing the subwoofer along the middle of a wall, or out in the room will decrease the amount of bass output. Experiment with a number of different placement options and control settings to find the one that best suits your particular room and taste. When choosing your subwoofer's location, keep in mind that you will need to connect the subwoofer's built-in amplifier to an AC power outlet. Conventional Speaker Wire Connection -- Using 16-gauge or larger speaker wire, connect the RED "positive" (+) terminal of your amplifier's LEFT channel to the RED "positive" (+) terminal of your subwoofer's LEFT channel input ("Speaker In"). Connect the BLACK "negative" (­) terminal of your amplifier's LEFT channel to the BLACK "negative" (­) terminal of your subwoofer's LEFT channel input ("Speaker In"). Repeat this procedure for connecting your amplifier's RIGHT channel to your subwoofer's RIGHT channel input. Take care to make sure that no bare wires from any of the connections touch any other terminals as this could cause a short and damage your equipment.
