RCA LINE INPUT (LFE), L & R
LFE & Unbalanced RCA inputs for left and
right channel. Choose the left one when
using LFE signal. The left and right inputs
are a sum, providing bass for both channels.

POWER - AUTO/Always ON
With this function in the “AUTO” position,
your subwoofer can be safely left with the
main power switch on continuously. The
subwoofer will turn itself on automatically
when an audio signal is present. If no
signal is present for approximately 1 hour,
the unit will switch to standby mode
(indicated by red power LED color). While
in standby mode, your subwoofer will draw
very minimal power. This function can
be disabled by setting this switch to the
“OFF” position.
EQ SETTING SWITCH
This switch allows you to choose between
the three different EQ settings as
explained in the “SUB EQ” section, found
on previous page..
LOW PASS SWITCH
The low pass filter cuts away high
frequencies at a certain point and over,
the frequency point is set by the crossover
variable. We recommend that when using
LFE signal to turn the low pass filter off,
as most receivers are handling filters
internally.
CROSSOVER 40 to 160 Hz
This control allows you to adjust the upper limit
of the subwoofer’s frequency response from 40
to 160 Hz. The subwoofer’s output level will be
reduced above the frequency this control is set
to. You should set the crossover frequency to
obtain a smooth and seamless transition from
the subwoofer to the main speakers in your
system. If your main speakers are smaller units
with limited low frequency output, start with
a higher frequency (such as 100-150 Hz). With
larger speakers that have greater low frequency
output, you might start with this control set lower
(such as 60-100 Hz).
PHASE 0° - 180°
(set to 0° if using a surround
processor)
This control allows you to alter the phase of
the subwoofer’s output signal , 0° - 180° to
correct for a possible mismatch and resulting
cancellation between the subwoofer and your
main speakers/amplifier. To adjust, listen to the
system with music playing and tune between
0° and 180° and listen for a change in mid-bass
output. The correct position will have a greater
amount of apparent mid-bass output.
VOLUME
(set to pointing upwards/12 o’clock if
using a surround processor)
This control allows you to adjust the output level
of the subwoofer to match the main speakers in
your system. For most home theater receivers
& surround sound processors, set the volume
control to pointing upwards / 12 o’clock position.
For music systems, start with the volume control
at a low setting and proceed slowly from there
until levels match. Use of test tones (from a
receiver/processor’s built in calibration function
or test disc) and SPL meter are suggested for
proper level matching of all speakers.
XLR BALANCED
This is a balanced version of the LFE signal.
XLR PASS THROUGH
This works as a pass through for the XLR
balanced signal, this makes it possible to connect
several subs with one signal from the source.
SPEAKER LEVEL CONNECTION
- Front left channel from amp
- Front right channel from amp
(OPTIONAL CONNECTION)
- To Left speaker
- To Right speaker
