Model 162 PBM High Performance Subwoofer
Features
Power output rated at 75 watts
Coupled with our highly efficient driver, this subwoofer is capable of surprising performance.
Working frequency range from 20Hz to 150Hz
Continuously adjustable low-pass filter from 60Hz to 125Hz
The slope of the low-pass filter is -24 dB/octave. This allows for flexible integration with most any brand or type of speaker on the market.
Line level inputs and outputs with RCA connectors
The model 162 PBM features stereo inputs and outputs for convenient hookup, and to provide easy “daisy-chaining” to another subwoofer, if desired.
High-level (Speaker Level) inputs and outputs with spring-type connectors
These provide convenient hookup to a sound source that does not have line-level outputs for a subwoofer.
Phase-invert switch (+/-180 degrees)
Allows matching with systems whose output are phase inverted, and to compensate for unusual room acoustics.
Woofer output level control
Matches a wide range of source levels.

Introduction
Congratulations on choosing an Atlantic Technology Powered Subwoofer. Our subwoofers feature proprietary amplifiers and special high excursion woofers. The sealed acoustic suspension cabinet configuration provides extended, tight, deep bass in a compact, room-friendly design.
Connection
Atlantic Technology Powered Subwoofers are simple to hook up, offering several connection methods for maximum flexibility. Study the system diagrams starting on page 5. Once you have found the example which most closely matches your system, hook up your subwoofer(s) as shown in that diagram.

TECHNOLOGY
Low-Level Connection
For best performance, we suggest using the low-level (RCA style jacks) subwoofer line out or preamp outputs if your receiver/amplifier has them. Simply connect your subwoofer with high quality shielded cables as shown in the diagrams.
High-Level Connection
Alternately, you may use the high-level (speaker) inputs. Make sure to match the type and gauge speaker wire used to connect your main speakers. Be certain that no stray wire strands are touching across the two terminals as this might damage your amplifier when you turn it on.
We recommend that you connect your subwoofer using high quality wire of 16 gauge or larger for lengths up to 25 feet. There are many manufacturers who specialize in speaker wire and interconnects suitable for your new system. We recommend that you consult your local audio/video specialist for more specific information.
Warning: To prevent risk of electrical shock or damage to your equipment, always unplug all component AC cords before proceeding with speaker and component connections.
