How to Hook Up an Amp to Subwoofers

Your new, sweet, rumbling Klipsch subwoofer is here. But, wait - how do you connect your Klipsch sub to the rest of your home theater system? You don't need to use both. In most cases, it's not recommended. You would need to set the main speakers to "large" in the receiver or preamp set-up menu. With some older subwoofers, this was listed as "optional" and it's fine to connect to both; however with most subs today, this is not recommended, as it may damage the sub electronics. So double-check the manual or contact our tech support department to clarify any questions regarding Klipsch subs. You will need either a receiver or a preamplifier and amplifier. The blue LED on the back of the sub will start to blink. The LED on the sub will go solid and the pairing connection is complete.

This little puppy can even work if you have a premium factory system in your car — but still want to get more bass. It takes the hi-level signals of your factory amp and drops them down to the line level that your amplifier needs — all without compromising the fidelity of the factory system. Not that big a difference.
