REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS ­ DETAILED EXPLANATION The SC-1250 is equipped with both speaker-level and line-level inputs. Use the RCA/Phono type "INPUT" jacks when connecting from a pre-amp, signal processor, or line-level crossover. The "SPEAKER LEVEL INPUT" jacks connect directly to the speaker outputs of an integrated amplifier or receiver. Your amplifier section will notice no additional loading effects when you use these inputs because of their high impedance. To reactivate the low-pass crossover, simply push the crossover UP or crossover DOWN buttons. -- A W o r d A b o u t Yo u r R e c e i v e r ' s C r o s s o v e r and the SC-1250 Crossover Your Velodyne SC-1250 amplifier is designed to operate using the full range audio signal for input when using the built-in crossover. Many home theater processors/receivers (Dolby Digital®, DTS®, THXTM) have a "subwoofer out" jack that performs this same function and are designed to be used with a powered subwoofer. The SC-1250 comes with a default setting for the SC-10 subwoofer. When the unit is first powered up, the model being controlled is displayed for 2 seconds on the numeric LED before the display reverts to the volume setting. The subwoofer to be controlled is shown as follows: Model SC-8 SC-10 SC-12 SC-15 LED Display Model S C - I n - Wa l l ( S C - I W ) SC-In-Floor (SC-IF) SC-In-Ceiling (SC-IC) LED Display 8 I0 I2 I5 IW IF IC GS G e n e r i c S u b w o o f e r ** ** - The generic subwoofer setting is for passive subwoofers not on the above list.
