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 specified 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.
