Congratulations on your purchase of the Fender PS-512 Powered Subwoofer.
The PS-512 is a full-bodied powered subwoofer that pairs perfectly with all
Fender Passport systems (as well as third-party PA systems) that include the
“Sub Out” feature. To dramatically increase your system’s bass frequency
output and maximize the power sent to the mid- and high-frequency drivers,
simply connect the PS-512 to your Passport system’s 1/4” (6.3 mm) “Sub Out”
output. Making this connection engages a high-pass filtering circuit that
dedicates more power to mid and high frequencies. The result is dramatically
increased overall volume and greater definition between low and mid/high
frequencies.
Take your Fender Passport system to the next level and push bass-heavy
music with confidence by adding the Fender PS-512 powered subwoofer.
