Connecting the satellites to the subwoofer
Tip: Four-pole ATX connectors and heavy gauge
wire provide a succinct solution for the challenge of
providing discrete amplified signals to the midrange
and tweeter. They eliminate the need to run two
pairs of speaker cables to each satellite. If you’d like
to replace or extend these cables, check your local
electronics store, or visit the Corsair store at
store.corsair.com.
Connecting the subwoofer to your PC
Connecting the subwoofer to a console
gaming system
Connecting the desktop controller to
the subwoofer
WARNING: do not connect the controller to a VGA card,
or any other 15-pin connector other than the one found
on the SP2500 subwoofer.
Tip: we have included hook-and-loop fastening tape
dots if you’d like to help secure the controller to your
desk. Use of the tape dots is strictly optional, and we
recommend applying them only after you’ve used the
desktop controller and you have a good feeling for its
natural home on your desk.
Tip: the USB connector on the back of the desktop
controller is used for optional firmware updates. It is
not necessary to connect the desktop controller to
your PC via USB for normal use. The SP2500 is not a
USB audio device.
Optional: connecting auxiliary devices and
headphones
WARNING: take care when connecting headphones to
the SP2500 the first time. We recommend turning the
SP2500 volume down all the way before wearing your
headphones, and then slowly turning it up.
Turn on the SP2500
Press the POWER
controller
WARNING: Before playing an audio source, see
Using the desktop controller for instructions on adjusting
