Reference subwoofer
Set up and operation
Recommended subwoofer placement:
When available, connect the VINCI8S to the preamp out of your
main audio system. Alternatively, you can connect the subwoofer
to the speaker outputs from the audio system’s power amplifier.
Once connected, the speaker operation is straight forward. Read
this section carefully and use it as a guideline. Please note that the
VINCI8S has been designed for low to modest listening levels !
First, set the level potentiometer all the way down. Set the
frequency potentiometer about halfway (12 o’clock position) and
set the phase switch to the normal position. Now power on your
audio system. Power on the VINCI8S subwoofer. The on/standby
led will light up red briefly and become green. Select a music
a) within at least 10 cm of the room corner (maximum low bass
output)
b) against the wall between your left and right front speakers
(strong low bass output with optimal blending to the main
speakers)
c) freestanding between your left and right front speakers (cleanest
low bass output with optimal blending to the main speakers)
If you need louder bass response, add more subwoofers to your
system. Adding subwoofers, installed at different positions in the
room, usually solves most room related problems, such as boomy
bass, standing waves…
