Note: You will have two Upper Module enclosures as well as two Woofer 
Module enclosures to unpack. The two modules will need to be separated 
into right and left channels. Clear out two spaces, one for your left and one 
for your right channels. Place the ODD numbered modules in the LEFT chan-
nel section and the EVEN in the RIGHT channel position.

Section 2.1—Uncrating the Sasha DAW

Note: Before uncrating your Sashas, remove all jewelery such watches, 
rings, and bracelets to avoid scratching the painted surface.

Initial Check

The Sasha DAW is shipped in three wooden crates. Upon receiving these 

crates, please check their condition. If any of the crates are damaged, please 

report it to the shipping company immediately for insurance verification.

The following items are recommended for this procedure:

• 

Electric Screwdriver

• 

Phillips head drive bit

Uncrating the Woofer Module

A minimum of two strong adults is required to set up the Sasha DAW. Lo-

cate the two largest crates labeled “Sasha DAW Lower.” These contain the woofer 

enclosures and are the first components of the system to unpack.

1.  With the crate lid facing up, unscrew the wood screws securing 

the lid. Remove the lid.

2.  Carefully turn the crate upright so that the Woofer Module 

is now vertical. With the Woofer Module’s bottom toward the 
floor, reach in and gently slide the Woofer Module out of the 
crate, carefully, so as not to hit the Woofer Module on the crate 
and scratch the paint.

3.  Place the Woofer Module with an odd serial number on the left 

side of the room and the Woofer Module with an even serial 
number on the right side of the room. 

Note: These two woofer enclosures are very heavy and care should be taken 
to prevent injury.

Uncrating the Upper Module

The Upper Modules are contained in a single crate. Unpack the modules 

using the following procedure:

1.  With the crate lid facing up, unscrew the wood screws securing 

the lid. Remove the lid.

2.  The Upper Module crate contains the owner’s manual and tool 

kit. Remove these.
