Important Satellite Connection Information For Mono (& 70V Mono) Systems For Mono systems, always connect half the satellite speakers to one of the satellite speaker output terminals and the other half to the other satellite speaker output terminals. Do NOT connect to only one of the sets of satellite output terminals . In order to avoid excessively low impedance loads to the power amp when using 4 satellite speakers (which could cause the power amplifier to fail), the satellite output te

Sub-Sat System Design The exact configuration of a subwoofer/satellite loudspeaker system depends on a number of factors, such as: • How large the room is and how many satellite speakers it will take to cover the room? • Whether the distance between the satellite speakers allows a single subwoofer to cover the entire space? • Whether the program material is light background music or dominant driving music? • Where the subwoofer will be located in relation to room boundaries (wall, ceili

Adjust the tap setting to change the amount of power that gets to the entire sub/sat system. For rooms where very even subwoofer coverage is desired, a distributed subwoofer system might be a better solution than using Multiple Systems one of the passive subwoofer/satellite systems from this guide.

Systems with IN-CEILING Satellite Speakers In-ceiling loudspeakers can benefit from the addition of a subwoofer. Often that takes the form factor of an in-ceiling subwoofer like Control 19CS or Control 312CS, but it may be desirable to use a subwoofer with a full passive crossover. For more information about model selection, see the “Subwoofer Model Selection” and “Designing for Other JBL Subwoofer Models” sections, above.
