Equalizers that connect to your stereo system, such as those made by Yamaha, are used to adjust sound between levels. Sound levels include treble, mid-range and bass, which are set using slide controls on a panel. Connecting an equalizer is similar to connecting other types of components with your stereo or home theater receiver. To do this, you need to connect the audio cables correctly to each of the components.
Instructions
1. Press the "Power" button on the receiver to turn it off. Set the equalizer on top or below the stereo or a home theater receiver.
2. Plug the power cord for the equalizer into an electrical outlet or power strip.
3. Plug one end of an RCA stereo cable to the "Line Out" jacks for the CD or DVD output on the back of a stereo or home theater receiver.
4. Plug the other end of the RCA stereo cable to the "Line In" on the back of the equalizer.
5. Plug a second RCA stereo cable into the "Line Out" jacks on the back of the equalizer. The other end of the cable needs to plug into the CD or DVD "Line In" on the stereo or home theater receiver.
6. Press the "Power" button on the equalizer and stereo or home theater receiver to turn them on. Press the "CD" or "DVD" button on the receiver. This will send the audio signal to the equalizer.
