Alternate High Level Connection

The alternate method for making high level connections is to connect both the ICS Sub 24 and the main speakers

directly to the amplifier. This type of connection does not take advantage of the high pass filter provided by the High

Level Outputs of the ICS Sub 24. Consequently the main speakers will operate full range.

There are two connection methods. Both methods are electrically equivalent. Which one you use will depend largely

on you physical set up of your room.

One method is to connect both the main speakers

and the ICS Sub 24 directly to the amplifier.

main speakers to the ICS Sub 24.
