Commissioning and setting
Before beginning with start-up and operation, make sure that all the cables are
connected correctly.
Switching the subwoofer on/off
Switch the
Power
switch
to the
ON
position to switch on the energy supply
(mains 230V/50Hz) for the Loewe Subwoofer 800. Set the switch to
OFF
to switch
off the subwoofer completely.
Automatic or manual operation
If the subwoofer is connected as described on page 8 and the Mode switch
is in the
Auto
position, you no longer need to switch the subwoofer on and off
separately. After switching on the subwoofer for the first time it is switched on
and off automatically with the Loewe TV set.
If the subwoofer is operated on other devices than the Loewe Flat-TV, the
Mode
switch
must be switched to the
Manu
. position. The subwoofer must then be
switched on/off manually with the
Power
switch
.
Settings on the Loewe TV set
Log in the new devices as described in the operating manual of your Loewe TV set
in the chapter “Operating additional equipment – Connecting audio amplifiers”.
Setting the equalizer
Using the knob
Equalizer
you can set the lowest frequency ranges (20 Hz - 50
Hz) for bass playback to be raised or lowered.
• If the Subwoofer is near the corner of the room, then set the knob
Equalizer
more in the direction
min
.
• If the Subwoofer is near a wall, then set the knob Equalizer more in the middle
position.
• If the Subwoofer is freely positioned in the room, then set the knob
Equalizer
more in the direction
max
.
Phase switch
With the phase converter
Phase
you have the option of optimising the bass
playback. However, you can easily make this setting in connection with a Loewe
Flat TV (from chassis L27xx/SL1xx/SL2xx with integrated digital multi-channel
audio decoder onwards) using a remote control via the TV menu in the sound
component assistant (see operating instructions under “Setting loudspeaker
system“). The phase converter is designed for systems where settings can not be
made using the TV.
We recommend you to proceed as follows:
• Start DVD playback for example and select a title with bass parts.
• Have a second person activate the phase switch whilst you sit and listen.
• Decide for yourself which switch position reproduces the best bass sound.
Bass intensity
Using the controller
Bass-Intensity
you can set the basic bass volume to suit
you.
Setting the crossover frequency
The
Crossover Frequency
knob
gives you the possibility of setting the limit
frequency for bass reproduction between 50 Hz and 250 Hz depending on which
speakers you have connected.
The knob should be set to 250 Hz for Loewe Audio Systems because the crossover
frequency is set in the Loewe audio sources (TV).
Cover on the subwoofer
After you have made the settings described in “Commissioning and setting”, replace
the cover on the rear of the subwoofer.
