Hi everybody, Chris here from QSC
0:10
In this video we're going to show you how to use your K.2 speakers with a subwoofer
0:14
Some systems require a little more low end extension
0:17
so, we're going to run through a couple of scenarios
0:19
that will help you select the best connection option for your setup
0:23
Our first example is to connect your left and right outputs from your mixer
0:27
to the A and B inputs on your subwoofer
0:30
Underneath the inputs are parallel outputs that you can take to your left and right K.2 top boxes
0:35
From there, simply select the crossover setting in the top box that matches the crossover in the subwoofer
0:41
Now your system is optimized to work together
0:45
In this setup you can adjust your sub gain separately from your top boxes
0:48
with the same outgoing signal from your mixer
0:51
Our second subwoofer scenario uses an auxiliary output on your mixer
0:55
Simply take left and right outputs from your mixer to your left and right top boxes
1:00
Then use an auxiliary output plugged directly into the sub from your mixer
1:03
This gives you the ability to feed only the instruments that have low frequency into your sub
1:07
and have separate volume control at the mixer from your top boxes
1:11
You still want to engage the crossover that matches the subwoofer
1:14
but, this is a more professional setup that gives you better control over your sound
1:18
So, these are a couple of options of how you can connect your subwoofer with your K.2 speakers
1:22
and get added low end extension simply and easily
