The On-Q/Legrand ev
ō
Q™ 5000 Home Theater 10” 150W Sub-Woofer is a cube approximately 15” square. It is
made of black vinyl covered MDF, and is a sealed unit designed to be placed where base response is best,
supporting the non-directional nature of its base frequency output. It features connections for both line level
input and speaker level input and output, a volume control, a crossover adjustment (50-200Hz) and a phase
reversal switch. It also features a removable fabric grill cloth to enhance the sub-woofer’s appearance when
installed. This is a powered sub-woofer, and as such needs to be placed within 6 feet of a 120VAC 60Hz
electrical outlet.
