Subwoofer Setup
Optimal Setup for Your BG Z-Sub
The Z-Sub Active Subwoofer by BG Corp is the
perfect complement to the entire Z-Series line
of loudspeakers. The Z-Sub is a compact yet
powerful, active subwoofer designed to partner
perfectly with our loudspeakers for use in stereo,
high performance home theater or multi-channel
audio. Or you may choose our Z-Sub for use with
any high quality loudspeaker system.
The Z-Sub consists of one 10” long excursion
composite cone woofer, augmented with a 10”
down-ring passive radiator, 150 watt RMS class
AB power amplier and detachable power cord.
Features include input signal sensing Auto/On,
phase switch, line-level input, speaker-level input/
output, variable crossover and variable volume
control.
Subwoofer Placement, Connection and
Adjustment:
Placement – The Z-Sub should be placed beside
or behind either the left or right front speaker (see
diagram). When using more than one subwoofer
consult with your authorized BG dealer for ad-
vanced setup procedures.
Care should be taken when handling the Z-Sub
as it contains a bass driver (a.k.a. passive radia-
tor) on the bottom that could be damaged with
mishandling. The feet included with the Z-Sub
help protect the passive radiator and provide the
required 1” (2.54 cm) clearance from the oor to
the passive radiator.
Connections
1. L&R line-level input jacks. These inputs are
designed for low-level RCA component connec-
tions and interconnects derived directly from your
receiver or processor. If your receiver or proces-
sor only has one subwoofer output, plug it into
the Right or Left low-level input.
2. L&R speaker-level / high-level ve-way bind-
ing posts are provided as well. These inputs and
outputs are designed for high-level subwoofer
connections and pass-through loudspeaker inter-
connections. Five-way binding posts are provided
to accept up to 14 AWG speaker cable.
3. Detachable power cord. This subwoofer is
supplied with a detachable power cord for ease
of installation and transportation.
