Introduction

Important Safety Instructions

Congratulations on your purchase of an RBH Sound Subwoofer! Your subwoofer 
is the result of many years of research and development dedicated to producing 
powerful, accurate bass in home audio systems. This manual contains operating 
procedures and specifications. We recommend you thoroughly read through the 
material contained in this manual before connecting your subwoofer. This will 
ensure you have an understanding of how to setup and operate your subwoofer 
for optimum performance.

The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol within an equilateral 
triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of un-insulated 
“dangerous voltage” within the product enclosure that may be of 
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to 
alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance 
(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.

When using your subwoofer, basic safety precautions should always be followed 
to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury.

1.   Read and understand all instructions in the users manual before operating 

the Subwoofer.

2.   Retain this user manual for future reference.
3.   Follow all warnings and instructions in this manual and any marked on the 

back of the Subwoofer.

4.   Never touch the woofers or push objects of any kind into the woofer.
5.  The subwoofer should be connected to a power supply compatible with the power 

consumption requirements, see the specifications section of this manual.

6.  If mounting the subwoofer on a stand, the wall, or other device only do so as 

recommended by an RBH Sound authorized technician.

7.  Place the subwoofer a safe distance from all heat sources such as radiators, 

stoves, or heaters. 

8.  Do not operate the subwoofer near water—for example, near a bathtub, kitchen 

sink or in a wet basement; or a swimming pool.

9.  Power supply cords should be routed so they are not likely to be walked on or 

pinched by items placed upon or against them.

10.  Any  service  or  repair  required  must  be  performed  by  qualified,  RBH  Sound 

authorized technician.
