Interconnections with the speaker terminals
Connections to the HI LEVEL INPUT

plugs
If the preamp section of your Hi-Fi or audio-video system is not
fitted with a lowlevel output, you should then use loudspeaker
cable and connect subwoofer by using its loudspeaker termi-
nals. When connecting the L (left) and R (right) speaker outputs
of your amplifier to the HI LEVEL INPUT
5
plugs of the sub-
woofer, be careful not to cross (-) and (+) cord of either L (left)
or R (right) channel. Such a phase inversion might damage your
main amplifier.
Connections from the HI LEVEL OUTPUT
4
plugs
The signal from the L (left) and R (right) HI LEVEL OUTPUT
4
plugs is the one being brought in by the HI LEVEL INPUT
5
connectors.
These outputs can be used to bring the signal to the main loud-
speaker systems or to a second subwoofer in a parallel mono
configuration. In the last lay-out, the L (left) and R (right) HI
LEVEL OUTPUT
4
terminals must be connected to the L (left)
and R (right) HI LEVEL INPUT
5
ones of the second subwoo-
fer. The input signal must then arrive into the first subwoofer by
its L (left) and R (right) HI LEVEL INPUT
5
terminals.
Power supply
The AC IN
3
cord must be connected to the mains to supply
the subwoofer. The selection of the right voltage 115 V - 230 V
is done with the selector 150 V - 230 V
2
. Switch POWER
on ON, then select AUTO or ON on the
toggle switch.
With the switch on the AUTO position, the unit will mute after
a few minutes without input signal. The system turns on auto-
matically when signal comes back.
Attention, before operating the unit, be sure that the operating
voltage of your unit is identical with that of your local power vol-
tage.
ADJUSTMENTS
with Baltic
with io²
with Riga
CROSSOVER FREQUENCY
9
This potentiometer adjusts the cut-off frequency which determines
the working bandwidth of the subwoofer. This adjustment should
be done according to the specifications of the main speakers and
the room acoustics. Choose the best frequency after various lis-
tening tests. We have listed above the settings you should start
from for Baltic Evolution, iO2 and Riga.
VOLUME
8
For a first volume adjustment, position the CROSSOVER FRE-
QUENCY
9
at around 120 Hz, and turn slowly the volume
VOLUME
8
clockwise from minimum level up to a posi-
tion where you feel that the subwoofer sound level is appro-
priate. A check of the level adjustment will be necessary after
following tests.
PHASE
0
For a better sound integration of the subwoofer in the main sys-
tem, the PHASE
0
of the subwoofer might have to be inver-
ted (180° position), depending on the distance between the sub-
woofer and the main speakers. You have to check the PHASE
0
each time you move your speakers and each time you adjust the
CROSSOVER FREQUENCY
9
. Attention, if you use 2 sub-
woofers, both phase switches must be on the same position.
