APPLICATIONS – CS200.1
The CS subwoofer amplifier is a
single-channel amplifier. There are
two sets of terminals to make it easy
to connect multiple woofers. Either
set of (+/–) terminals may be used
when connecting woofers.

If your system design does not include
a subwoofer with the CS50.4, set the
crossover mode to FLAT and skip to
“Setting Input Sensitivity.”

NOTE: After the source unit is on, blue
LEDs (on the top panel) will light, indicating
the amplifier is on. If not, check the wiring,
especially the remote connection from the
source unit. Also refer to “Troubleshooting”
