SUB-TS10 SUBWOOFER AMPLIFIER PANEL CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS
like action moves in and out in phase with
the main speakers. If the speakers were to
play out of phase, the sound waves pro-
duced by the subwoofer would be cancelled
out, reducing bass response. This phenome-
non depends in part on the relative place-
ment of the speakers in the room. In most
cases, the
Phase Switch
∞
should be left
in the
NORMAL
position. However, it
does no harm to experiment with the
Phase Switch
∞
, and you may leave it
in the position that maximizes bass
response.
§
High-Cut (Low-Pass) Filter Switch:
Placing this switch in the
ON
position acti-
vates circuitry that cuts out all audio input
signals above 120Hz. This allows the SUB-
TS10 to focus its power on reproducing the
low-frequency portion of the signal, avoid-
ing inefficiency and distortion. Engage this
filter when using the
Speaker-Level
Inputs
¡
, or when using the
Line-Level
Full-Range Inputs
¢
, unless your receiver
or processor processes its line-level output
using a low-pass filter. The filter has no
effect when the
SUB Input
£
is used.
¶
Music-Sense On/Off Switch:
When
placed in the
AUTO
position, and when the
Master Power Switch
⁄
is turned on, the
SUB-TS10 will automatically turn itself on or
place itself in the Standby mode, depending
on whether it is receiving an audio signal.
When this switch is placed in the
ON
posi-
tion, the SUB-TS10 will remain on, whether or
not it is receiving an audio signal.
•
Filter Remote Control Input:
This
input accepts a remote control signal from
a compatible Harman Kardon A/V receiver
that enables you to override the
High-Cut
(Low-Pass) Filter Switch
§
, by signal-
ing the SUB-TS10 to engage the filter even
when the switch is in the
OFF
position.
ª
LED Indicator:
This LED indicates
whether the SUB-TS10 is in the
ON
or
STANDBY
state when used with the
Music-Sense On/Off Switch
¶
in the
AUTO
position. The LED is lit Green to
indicate that the SUB-TS10 is receiving
an audio signal and is turned on, and the
LED is lit Red to indicate that no signal is
being received and the SUB-TS10 is in
Standby mode.
When the
Music-Sense On/Off Switch
¶
is in the
ON
position, the LED will be lit
Green, whether or not an audio signal is
present.
When the
Master Power Switch
⁄
is
turned off, the LED goes dark, no matter
which position the
Music-Sense On/Off
Switch
¶
is in.
‚
Subwoofer-Level Control:
Volume
can be adjusted using the
Subwoofer-
Level Control
. Turn the control clockwise
to increase the SUB-TS10’s volume, or
counterclockwise to decrease it.
⁄
Master Power Switch:
Place this
switch in the “•” position to power-on the
SUB-TS10 subwoofer. The SUB-TS10 will
then be either in the Standby mode or
completely on, depending on the position
of the
Music-Sense On/Off Switch
¶
.
¤
AC Power Cord:
Make sure to plug
this cord into an active, unswitched electri-
cal outlet for proper operation of the SUB-
TS10. The cord should not be plugged into
the accessory outlets found on some audio
components.
