Positioning

As the sub-bass (low frequency) sound produced by the subwoofer is non-

directional it can be positioned almost anywhere in the room, although it 

should not be placed too close to the listener. For optimum performance 

try the subwoofer in different positions to find the best place for a boom-

free sound.

Connection to AV amplifier / receiver

Connect to the amplifier LFE subwoofer output.

All inputs work simultaneously.

Set the subwoofer frequency on the amplifier / receiver to 120Hz (refer to 

the amplifier / receiver manual).

Ensure that the satellites are set to the appropriate configuration in the 

amplifier / receiver menu (refer to the speaker manual).

Adjust the subwoofer volume on the AV amplifier / receiver to your desired 

level (refer to the amplifier / receiver manual).

Troubleshooting

Adjusting the controls

Bass Boost

The bass boost control is intended to adjust the response of the subwoofer 

to  compensate  for  room  conditions  and  user  preferences.  Boost  is 

switchable between 0, +6 and +12dB at around 40Hz.

Phase Control

The  phase  control  will  normally  be  set  at  0˚  but  more  output  level 

can  sometimes  be  achieved  in  the  180˚  position,  particularly  when  the 

subwoofer is far away from the satellite speakers.

PLEASE NOTE:

Volume Control

Volume control is implemented in the source equipment.

Auto/Manual Switch

In Auto mode the unit will remain in standby until a signal is sensed.

In Manual mode the unit will remain on even when no signal is present.

FAULT

REMEDY

Mains indicator light does not come on.

Check that the subwoofer is plugged into the mains supply and that any switches are on.

Check any fuses (including the plug) or circuit breakers on the mains supply which may affect the 

power to the subwoofer.

Contact your dealer for further advice.

Mains indicator light is on but no sound comes 

from the subwoofer.

Check and adjust the level control.

Check the output sockets on the source equipment are correctly switched and adjusted 

to provide sufficient level to drive the subwoofer.

Check that all connections between the subwoofer and the source equipment are 

correct and adjust as necessary.

If there is still no sound.

Contact your dealer for further advice.
