How do I clean my subwoofer?

Use a dust free cloth or a soft brush to clean your subwoofer. 

We recommend a specialty cloth (available through the 

Xtatic shop at www.martinlogan.com) that cleans better 

than anything else we have tried.

Is it safe to set things on my subwoofer?

While your subwoofer is designed with a durable, stain-

resistant surface, we advise you not to set anything on your 

subwoofer—especially containers holding liquids.

Is  there  likely  to  be  any  interaction  between  my 

subwoofer and the CRT television in my Audio/ Video 

system? 

Yes. The subwoofer doesn’t use a shielded driver. We 

recommend 3 feet between the subwoofer and video 

components that are susceptible to magnetic fields.

Will my electric bill go 'sky high' by leaving my subwoofer 

plugged in all the time? 

No. The subwoofer, when the power switch is set to 

‘Auto’ or ‘Standby’, will draw about 15 watts when idle. 

Should I unplug my subwoofer during a thunderstorm? 

Yes, or before. It's a good idea to disconnect all of your 

audio/video components during stormy weather.

No Output

•  Check that all your system components are turned on.

•  Check that the master power switch adjacent to the AC 

receptacle is set to 'On'.

•  Check that the power switch on the subwoofer is set to 

either 'Auto' or 'On'.

•  Check your wires and connections.

•  Check all interconnecting cables.

•  Make sure the level control is not turned down.

•  Turn off and unplug the Depth i and check the fuse 

near the AC power cord receptacle on the back. If the 

fuse has blown, replace the bad fuse with a matching  

T 4A H 250V fuse (T 2A L H 250V if you are in a region 

using 230v–240v current).

•  If the problem persists, contact your dealer.

Muddy Bass

•  Check placement. Try moving the subwoofer closer to 

the front and side walls.

•  Check the type of feet that are being used. Try installing 

the ETC spikes.

•  Decrease the level.

•  Check your processor setup.

•  If the problem persists, contact your dealer.

Hums or Unusual Sounds

•  Turn the subwoofer off, unplug all signal inputs, turn 

the subwoofer back on and turn up the level. If the 

problem disappears, the hum is originating elsewhere 

in your system.

•  Connect the subwoofer’s AC connection to the same AC 

circuit as the pre amp.

•  If the problem persists, contact your dealer.
