Subwoofer Rear-Panel Controls
Crossover Knob:
This knob adjusts the subwoofer’s crossover between 50Hz and
150Hz. The higher you set the Crossover knob, the higher in frequency the subwoofer
will operate and the more its bass will “overlap” that of the soundbar. This adjustment
helps achieve a smooth transition of bass frequencies between the subwoofer and
the soundbar for a variety of different rooms and subwoofer locations. See
Subwoofer
Crossover Knob
, on page 10, for more information.
Volume Knob:
Use this control to balance the subwoofer’s volume with that of
the soundbar. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the subwoofer’s volume; turn it
counterclockwise to decrease the subwoofer’s volume.
Phase Switch:
This switch determines whether the subwoofer driver’s piston-like action
moves in and out in phase with the speakers in the soundbar. If the subwoofer were to
play out of phase with the soundbar speakers, the sound waves from the soundbar could
cancel out some of the sound waves from the subwoofers, reducing bass performance
and sonic impact. This phenomenon depends in part on the placement of the subwoofer
and soundbar relative to each other in the room. See
Subwoofer Phase Switch,
on
page 10, for more information.
Wireless Code Switch:
Selects between four different channels for the wireless
subwoofer signal.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to set the soundbar’s Wireless Code switch to the same
channel as you set the subwoofer’s Wireless Code switch. See
Wireless Code
Switches,
on page 10, for more information.
AC Fuse:
The SB 16 SUB is factory-equipped with a T1.6AL/250V AC fuse. If the fuse
ever blows:
1. Unplug the power cord from the wall.
2. Use a screwdriver to remove the blown fuse.
3. Replace the fuse with an identical T1.6AL/250V AC fuse.
CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST FIRE, REPLACE THE FUSE ONLY
WITH THE SAME TYPE AND RATING.
Power Cord:
Plug this cord into an active, unswitched AC outlet. See
Power Connections
,
on page 8, for more information.
Power Switch:
Set this switch to the On position to activate the subwoofer. In normal
operation, this switch will be left in the On position. See
Turning the Subwoofer On and
Off
, on page 9, for more information.
Status Indicator (on top of unit, not shown):
Turns blue when the subwoofer’s power
switch is in the On position; turns amber when the subwoofer is in Standby; turns off
when the subwoofer’s Power switch is in the Off position.
