With high volume levels of certain types of signals, the subwoofer may be audibly strained. If
you hear the subwoofer “breaking-up” or distorting, turn the volume level down.

TROUBLESHOOTING:
No Sound only from Subwoofer - Check subwoofer power/volume settings and all connections. Ensure that
the center channel mode on the receiver is in the NORMAL or SMALL position. If you have connected the
subwoofer via RCA cable and if your receiver has a subwoofer on/off or variable subwoofer output level
control, ensure that the subwoofer option is turned on and that the output level is at maximum. Make sure
the RCA cable is connected to the receiver's subwoofer output and not the subwoofer input jack that some
receivers have. If the problem persists, refer to the TO OBTAIN SERVICE section of your warranty at the
end of this manual.
No Sound only from Left and Right Front Speakers - Check all connections. Ensure that your receiver’s
speaker channel A or B is switched on. Note: You must connect your speakers to your receiver’s speaker
outputs if you connected the subwoofer via the LINE INPUT.
Too Much Bass - Check: subwoofer volume/phase/frequency controls; receiver bass/loudness controls;
program material; move subwoofer further out of corner or away from wall.
Too Little Bass - Check: subwoofer volume/frequency/phase control positions; all speaker wire phase (+ to
+, - to -); receiver tone controls; program material; ensure that the center channel mode on the receiver is in
the NORMAL or SMALL position. If your receiver has a variable subwoofer output level control, ensure that
the output level is at maximum. Try moving the subwoofer further into a corner or towards the wall. If you
have connected the subwoofer via a single phono cable you may want to try using a cable splitter (Radio
Shack part #42-2435). This will allow you to use both line inputs which will increase the input signal strength
to the subwoofer.
