Using the LFE Input on Your Triton Speakers
With surround sound playback you also have the option to use the low level LFE input in addition to the speaker
wires. To do this, simply use a “Y” connector (available from your dealer) out of the Sub/LFE output on your
receiver or processor to feed two line level cables, connecting one to the LFE input on your left Triton speaker
and the other to the LFE input on your right speaker. Again, “Tell” your receiver or processor’s bass management
system that you have “Large” left and right front speakers and select “Yes” for subwoofer. This will send only the
.1 LFE signal via the line level cables. The use of this connection method will allow you to adjust, from your
receiver/processor, the LFE channel volume level for movie playback (or any source with a “.1” channel). Some
listeners prefer this method of hook-up in order to raise the LFE level for more dramatic sound effects on movies.
PLEASE NOTE: Some receivers/processors have a setting option called “Double Bass”, or sometimes “Super Bass”
or “Bass+”. This option sends both LFE and bass above a specifi ed crossover to the LFE channel. Use of this option
should be avoided as it will likely cause the speakers to sound bloated and bass heavy.
