Your Rocket ULW-10 Subwoofer Enjoyment Guide

Your Rocket ULW-10 Subwoofer  is carefully hand-packaged utilizing molded foam inserts to protect its 
fine furniture-grade finish. Please use care when unpacking your new subwoofer. When removing it 
from the box, hold the wood sides of the cabinet, while taking care not to exert pressure on the front 
cloth grille.

We strongly recommend that you save the foam inserts and shipping cartons to protect your speakers, 
should you ever need to move or ship them to a new location.

Our thanks for buying a Rocket Series subwoofer from AV123. We sincerely appreciate your confidence 
in us and our products.

Although we know these speakers represent extraordinary value, we also know that the real test is how 
you feel about your speakers several months from now. That’s why AV123 will continue to work hard to 
earn your respect with technical advice and customer service that is second to none in our industry.

You can visit the AV123 website (www.av123.com) at any time for up-to-date product 
information, answers to FAQ’s, or to seek advice from the AV123 community at our 
online forum (forum.av123.com).

Should you require that personal touch, please don’t hesitate to contact our support department, 
toll-free, at (877) 543-7500 option 2. You’ll find our knowledgeable Technical Services Department 
eager and willing to help. 

We ask you read this owner’s manual first. It contains many tips on getting your new subwoofer set up, 
connected, configured, and performing its absolute best in your unique environment. 
We hope you find it clear, concise, and useful.  

Again, thank you for your support.

Your new Rocket ULW-10 Subwoofer

The Onix Rocket ULW-10 (Ultra Linear Woofer) is a very potent and agile subwoofer.

Special care and attention was given to the ULW to ensure clean, accurate, and extremely detailed 
low-end performance in both music and home theater systems. Features include a 350-watt amplifier, 
single band Subwoofer Optimization System, adjustable crossover, and infinite phase adjustment for 
easy in-room placement. This flexibility will result in a seamless blend with all Onix loudspeakers, as 
well as those from other manufacturers.
