ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
•
Wall Outlet: In the US 110V – 20 amp service preferred as 12 gauge wire, used for 20
amp service, provides a better draw supply to the amplifier. There is a slight
improvement in tightness and bass speed going from 16 amp to 20 amp
•
Rubber feet are included to provide isolation between bottom of sub and floor. This
isolation is necessary for clean bass
•
Subwoofer response is complex and room interactive. In addition there is a break in
period of about 2 weeks to attain best performance. We suggest moving the sub to a
variety of different positions within the listening area
ROOM PLACEMENT
One of these placements may be best for your room/seating position. This can only be done
empirically and takes quite a bit of time, trial and error. Listening, over a period of months,
generally yields best sub position.
•
Option 1 - Midway between front left and right main speakers. This position is generally
preferred for its transitional coherence but is not “carved in stone”
•
Option 2 – Midway along sidewall relative to the listening position
•
Option 3 – Behind the listening position near a back wall corner. Note: Placing the sub in
a corner will increase output between 3 - 6 db. Ironically this corner option is generally
least desirable due to loss of bass detail
NON-AMPLIFIED VERSIONS (CI-HV15P / CI-HV18P)
•
Connect the positive speaker wire and negative speaker wire from the amplifier directly
to the push terminals on the back of the subwoofer
•
Wire the positive speaker wire to the positive terminal and negative speaker wire to the
negative terminal located on the back of the subwoofer
•
Strictly adhere to the subwoofers power handling capabilities
