Line level input

These RCA jacks accept a line-level, full-range signal 

from the pre-amplifier or LFE output of a receiver or 

preamplifier.

This full-range signal is processed and amplified to 

power the subwoofer.

5

Polarity switch

This two-position switch allows the best match of 

acoustic output between the subwoofer and the 

satellite speakers in the crossover frequency region 

between them.

The 0° position maintains phase from input to 

output.

The 180° position changes the polarity by 180°.

Try both settings and pick the one that sounds best.

6

Status LED

This shows the status of the subwoofer.

Red indicates that the amplifier is plugged in and 

the power switch is either off or in standby mode 

with no input signal present.

Green indicates that the amplifier is operating 

with a signal present at the input from the 

pre-amplifier, receiver, or power amplifier.

7

Subwoofer 

crossover 

(frequency)

This rotary control sets the upper frequency at which 

the output of the subwoofer begins to roll off. 

Continuously variable from 60 Hz to 160 Hz, it 

matches the upper frequency characteristics of the 

subwoofer to the low-frequency response of the 

satellite speakers.

Recommended setting: 150 Hz.

8

Volume control 

(gain)

This rotary control adjusts the level of the subwoofer 

and is used to balance its volume with that of the 

satellite speakers.

9

Main power switch This switch controls the overall power status of the 

subwoofer. It must be in the ON position for the 

subwoofer to operate.

10

Fuse

For continued protection, replace the fuse with the 

same type and size listed.
