Take your time adjusting SUB - it is well worth the effort.

from Concept SUB - but without the bass being too dominant. The bass should 
be firm and precise, so that the subwoofer provides the bass that is present in 
the music/sound track - neither more nor less. When connecting to a surround 
sound system it may be an advantage to select a fixed setting for Concept SUB 
and only adjust the level via the surround amplifier’s separate adjustment of 
the subwoofer output level. If you over-modulate the subwoofer, your total 
sound experience may be disturbed by distortion. Remember that the location 
of Concept SUB has a major effect on the sound pressure you experience.

Choice of crossover frequency (with connection via "Line In, Left/Right")

Once the volume level is set you can tackle the equally important adjustment 
of the crossover between the front speakers and Concept SUB. You do this 
by adjusting "Crossover" up and down until you can hear the bass is smooth 
and without "holes". You may need to readjust the volume slightly for this 
adjustment.

Phase setting

Use the trial-and-error method for both settings - and you may also want to 
try readjusting volume and crossover frequency. In all cases it is a good idea 
to listen to the system for a couple of days and then readjust as required. The 
same setting will not always be ideal for both surround and 2-channel stereo. 
It is therefore always useful to make a note of your preferred settings for each 
application.

The "Auto" function sets Concept SUB to stand-by mode after approximately 
15 minutes with no signal to the input terminal. When Concept SUB receives a 
signal again, the system will switch on automatically.
The "Power" button is the main switch for the system. It is best to switch the 
system off completely when it is not going to be in use for long periods. When 
making or changing connections, always shut the system down completely.

Overloading

If Concept SUB is intensely overloaded, the built-in safety circuit may com-
pletely disconnect the subwoofer. If this happens, turn down the volume 
and turn off SUB for a moment before turning it on again.
