Definitive Technology ProSub 60 - Manual (Page 3)

Your new ProSub 60 Subwoofer contains a built-in amplifier and
sophisticated electronic crossover. There are several ways to install your
subwoofer. One setup is not considered “better” than another; rather,
each is a function of what type of entertainment system you own and
how you plan to integrate your components. Read the installation sug-
gestions below to determine which options best suit your needs. Please
take care to perform all wiring procedures with your system completely
powered down.
Subwoofer Installation
Unpacking
Each loudspeaker leaves our plant in perfect condition. Any visible
or concealed damage most likely occurred in handling after it left our plant,
and should be reported at once to your Definitive dealer or the delivery
company that delivered your loudspeaker. Please unpack your system care-
fully. Save all cartons and packing material in case you move or need to ship
your system. Record the serial number found on the back of the subwoofer
in the appropriate place on your warranty card.
Inputs/Outputs
Your Definitive Technology ProSub 60 subwoofer operates from either
high level (speaker-type) or low level (RCA-type) outputs on your elec-
tronics. Use the low level jacks when connecting the subwoofer to the
left and right low level or LFE output jacks of a receiver, a preamp or a
signal processor. Use the high level speaker terminal inputs to connect
the subwoofer to the amplifier output (speaker) jacks of your receiver or
amplifier. Use the high level output jacks to connect the subwoofer to a
pair of left and right main speakers. (See wiring diagrams.)
When connecting the subwoofer to your system, it is recommended
that you use high quality speaker cable and try to maintain cable runs of
the same length for the left and right channels. Should you perchance
experience any level of ground hum or noise, try plugging the subwoofer
into the same circuit as your amplifier. Also, consult the
“Troubleshooting” section of this manual. To prevent accidental damage
to your subwoofer from overdriving the system, the subwoofer features
an internal overload protection circuit.
