Control Level

Balances the subwoofer output level to your speaker system’s output.

 

Low Pass Filter (Hz) Control

Controls the subwoofer’s upper-frequency cut-off to match the low-frequency characteristics 

of your speakers.
 

Phase

Changes the phase of the subwoofer by 180° relative to your speakers.

SUBWOOFER PLACEMENT

We recommend positioning your subwoofer close to the wall, between the front speakers. 

Corner placement, Fig. 4 (  

j

) provides the most bass, but sometimes at the expense of 

accuracy. A subwoofer placed near a wall (

k

) usually provides a good balance of quantity 

and accuracy.
