2.  First  calibrate  the  level  between  the 
subwoofer and all main monitors using 
the rotary level adjustment trimmer on the 
subwoofer and suitable test signals.

3. Adjust the phase of the first subwoofer 
as instructed in the chapter “Manual Phase 
Adjustment Method”. 

4.  Repeat  phases  1  to  3  with  all  other 
subwoofers in the chain, one by one.

5. When two subwoofers connected in this 
way are positioned close to one another, 
bass level increases by 6 dB. Three 
subwoofers give an SPL increase of 9.5 dB 
and four subwoofers 12 dB compared to a 
single subwoofer. In order to match the SPL 
level of the complete subwoofer chain with 
the main monitor system, reduce the level of 
all subwoofers in the chain accordingly.

Maintenance

There are no user serviceable parts inside 
the subwoofer. Maintenance or repair must 
only be done by a Genelec certified service. 

Guarantee

Genelec guarantees the subwoofers for 
two years against manufacturing faults or 
defects altering performance. Refer to the 
reseller for full sales and guarantee terms.

Safety Considerations

The 7360A and 7370A have been designed 
in accordance with international safety 
standards. To ensure safe operation, the 
following warnings and precautions must be 
observed:

•  Servicing and adjustment must only be 

performed by a Genelec certified service. 

•  The subwoofer enclosure must not be 

opened.

•  Do not use this product with a mains 

cable or mains outlet having no protective 
earth (potential equalizing) connection as 
doing so may result in personal injury.  

•  To prevent fire or electric shock, do not 

expose the product to water or moisture. 

•  Do not place objects filled with liquid, such 

as vases, on the subwoofer or near it. 

•  The amplifier is not completely 

disconnected from the mains power 
unless the mains cable is removed from 
the amplifier or the mains outlet.

•  Free flow of air behind and around the 

subwoofer is necessary to maintain 
sufficient cooling. Do not obstruct airflow 
around the subwoofer.

•  These subwoofers are capable of 

producing sound pressure levels in 
excess of 85 dB, which may cause a 
permanent hearing damage.

Compliance to FCC Rules

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC 
Rules. Operation is subject to the following 
two conditions: 

•  This device may not cause harmful 

interference, and

•  This device must accept any interference 

received, including interference that may 
cause undesired operation. 

Note: This equipment has been tested and 
found to comply with the limits for a Class B 
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC 
Rules. These limits are designed to provide 
reasonable protection against harmful 
interference in a residential installation. 
This equipment generates, uses and can 
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not 
installed and used in accordance with the 

instructions, may cause harmful interference 
to radio communications. However, there 
is no guarantee that interference will not 
occur in a particular installation. If this 
equipment does cause harmful interference 
to radio or television reception, which can 
be determined by turning the equipment 
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to 
correct the interference by one or more of 
the following measures: 

•  Reorient or relocate the receiving 

antenna. 

•  Increase the separation between the 

equipment and receiver. 

•  Connect the equipment into an outlet on 

a circuit different from that to which the 
receiver is connected. 

•  Consult the dealer or an experienced 

radio/TV technician for help.

Modifications not expressly approved 

by the manufacturer could void the user’s 
authority to operate the equipment under 
FCC rules.
