To combine the subwoofers into the system so that one subwoofer produces the left and centre bass signals, whilst the other produces the right and centre bass signals, connect the system as shown to the left. Connection to the centre monitor can be made from either one of the subwoofer centre channels outputs. Note that as above the level sensitivity is 6dBu different from the single subwoofer system shown in figures 9 and 10. Figure 11. Two sub
