Mounting
Mounting
Generally:
The placement of the subwoofer in the room affects
the overall frequency response and sound level of
the system dramatically, as at low frequencies the
influence of the room is strong.
Even a slight change in the subwoofer's location
can make a significant difference in the frequency
balance, and often patience and methodical
experimentation is needed to find the optimum
placement.
This subwoofer is intended for XTZ products, but
can of course be used with other speakers.
Spikes
99 W12.18 ICE have feet of rubber to absorb
vibrations. But it’s possible to change this to spikes.
The Rubber foot are adjustable to get the
subwoofer in level with the floor. The foot are
removable for those who want to mount spikes.

Connect with the
correct phase
Always connect using the correct phase, from the
+-pole on the amplifier to the +-pole on the
loudspeaker and respectively for the minus (-) pole
If you by accident connect the other way,
there is no risk of damage. However, the
phase of the signal will be not correct,
resulting in improper sound.
Overload
With high power load under long time there is risk
of overloading the driver and/or the amplifier.
WARNING!
All products, amplifiers, speakers, cross-
overs can be damaged if playing loud
music for a long time
The initial playing
time
It takes about 50 to 100 hour of initial playing time,
for the driver to sound optimally. During this time,
the speaker may be used normally.
