Operation 

1. Auto Power Indicator

The auto function places the subwoofer in ‘standby’ mode (red light). The 

subwoofer is automatically turned on when a signal is detected (green light).

 

2. Phase indicator

The normal setting for the phase switch would be the 0° position. Switching to 180° 

will change the subwoofer phase and vary the tonal quality of the bass, which is 

also dependent on the location of the AE108² relative to your main stereo speakers.

 

3. Crossover Frequency Knob

Adjusts the balance at the crossover point between the bass (low frequencies) from 

the AE108² and the treble (high frequencies) continuing to the main stereo front 

speakers.  

4. Sub Level Volume Control Knob

Adjusts the volume level output of the subwoofer, allowing you to balance the 

volume of the AE1082to blend in with your main stereo speakers. Turning the knob 

clockwise increases the volume level and turning it anti clockwise decreases the 

volume level.

 

5. Input / Line In (RCA)

Used to connect the subwoofer to the pre-out socket on the amplifier.

6. Output / Line Out (RCA)

Used to connect to the Line In sockets on a second subwoofer, or to connect back 

to the power amp inputs on the amplifier.

 

7. Power Input

Connect the cord (supplied) to a 110-120v or 220-240v AC mains power outlet.

 

8. Mains voltage selector

Ensure the switch is showing the correct voltage for the country of use. 

9. Power Switch

Use the switch to turn the power on / off.
