Introduction
With the VCTBS10, we are introducing a low-profile amplified
subwoofer. Low enough to easily fit below the seat of your car, This
system offers you a quick and easy way to add a high-powered
subwoofer system to your audio system.
The integrated amplifier in the VCTBS10 features both high pass and
low pass crossovers, and a control for adjusting the input sensitivity
from 0.2V to 3V .
Both high level (speaker level) and low level (RCA type ) inputs are
present, making this a universal solution for use with any head unit
or other input source.
For further flexibility in the use of a subwoofer, a variable bass boost
control has been included. You can control the subwoofer level with
the remote level control module.
What is included?
When first unpacking your new amplified subwoofer, please
check first that the package contains all of the items below. If
something is missing, contact the store where you purchased

PHASE SHIFT
Use this switch to help compensate for time alignment problems in the
system. Such problems usually result from having the subwoofer at a
different distance from the listener than the other speakers in the system.
®
INPUT GAIN CONTROL
After you have installed your system, turn this control to minimum.
Turn the head unit on (and the subwoofer will turn on via the remote
connection). Turn the head unit volume to about 2/3 full level.
Slowly turn up the subwoofer input gain control until you hear a small
amount of distortion . Then reduce the level until the distortion is
completely gone . Leave the control at this setting .

BASS BOOST
The bass boost feature will increase the sound level the bass frequencies.
®
LOW PASS FILTTER
This control permits you define the frequency range you want the subwoofer
amplifier to receive. The subwoofer will reproduce all sound BELOW the
frequency you set.
If the rest of your system is weak on the mids , you may wish to set this
control relatively high. If the midrange is well covered by the rest of your
system, you will probably want the subwoofer to only receive lower
frequency signal.
®
REMOTE LEVEL CONTROL PORT
Attach the included remote level control to control the volume level of the
subwoofer independently.
