level of the full-range response). If specific measurements are not available, I
like to start at 50 Hz with an 18-dB/octave LP slope. I believe that the vast ma-
jority of loudspeakers with which your subwoofer will likely be partnered should
have enough clean output and power handling in the 40-50 Hz region to allow
this approach. However, some rooms exhibit so much loss in the LF that the L &
R speakers may have difficultly in that region and need help from the subwoof-
er up to 60-80 Hz. Another scenario might include problematic room acoustics,
with a significant upper bass peak. In such a case, correction may be achieved
by running the Controller up to 120—140 Hz and using its EQ to notch out the
room peak. This is one area where acoustical measurements, as described above,
are of great benefit.

or on “Standby.”
5. Ensure that all system cabling is correct and secure. At this

tings.
