EA-AMP-SUB-1D-110 Installation and Users Manual

12V DC Trigger

The EA-AMP-SUB-1D-110 is equipped with a 12V trigger input to turn the amplifier off, saving power consumption when not in use.  When 

this input receives a 12V signal, the amplifier will turn ON and will turn OFF when the signal goes away.

• Connect the 12V trigger output of the AV receiver to the 12V trigger input of the EA-AMP-SUB-1D-110 

 using a high-quality 3.5mm (1/8”) mono cable.

FINE TUNING

 After making all the connections and calibrating the loudspeakers, set up your Episode subwoofer using the following steps:

NOTE: When using an AV receiver and the LFE input, set the subwoofer calibration level to the factory setting 

1. Ensure that the subwoofer is plugged in.

2. Set the following controls and switches to positions that will enable tuning for maximum performance.

a. VOLUME knob set to 50%, or 12 o’clock

b. CROSSOVER knob set to 120 Hz or 12 o’clock

c. PHASE switch set to 0º

3. During initial setup, it may be helpful to set the MODE switch to the ‘ON’ position. Once calibration is complete, switch it to ‘AUTO’ to 

enable the automatic power-saving mode.

4. Play a movie scene or music track and set the system volume to an average level. Listen to the bass level from your favorite listening 

position. Adjust the VOLUME control as desired.

5. If deeper bass is desired, adjust the CROSSOVER control toward the lower frequencies. Experiment with different frequency settings 

until you find one that sounds best.

NOTE: When using the LFE input, set to LFE and make any crossover adjustments in the preamplifier or receiver crossover settings.

6. Continue listening to your favorite music and movie sources using the settings chosen for volume and crossover.

Now, try experimenting with the PHASE switch until you find the best setting for the installation. Depending on your subwoofer’s placement, 

the bass may sound louder or deeper when the phase has been optimized. In some cases, adjusting phase will make no discernible difference.
