How to Hook Up a Panasonic SB Subwoofer
By Andrew Tennyson
Many contemporary mainstream audio speakers lack the bass response necessary to accurately reproduce audio as it was intended to be heard. Hooking up a Panasonic SB series subwoofer to your stereo receiver or television can dramatically expand the device's bass response, bringing a deeper and fuller low-end to your listening environment.
Step 1
Attach the provided rubber feet to the bottom of the Panasonic SB subwoofer.
Step 2
Position the subwoofer appropriately within the room in which you intend to use it.
Step 3
Connect the included monaural connection cable from the subwoofer output on your receiver or TV to the input jack on the rear of the subwoofer.
Step 4
Connect the included power cord from the rear of the subwoofer to an available electrical socket.
Step 5
Press the "Power" button on the subwoofer.
Step 6
Play audio through the receiver or turn on your television to begin sending an audio signal to the subwoofer.
Step 7
Adjust the "Low Pass Filter," "Volume" and "Phase" controls on the rear of the subwoofer to suit your taste and environment.
