9) Make your wiring connections using the included weatherproof wire nuts 

and, when the entire system is ready, turn on your amplifier(s).  See page 6-8 

for information on wiring connections.
10) Lower the subwoofer into the hole.  Russound recommends placing a 1-2” 

layer of pea gravel or similar substrate at the bottom of the hole to ensure 

proper drainage.  When placed, the subwoofer and canopy should be level.  

You can verify this with a bubble level.
11) Before covering the subwoofer and any wiring, verify the system operation 

and that the proper volume levels are set.  It is easy to adjust the subwoofer tap 

setting before the subwoofer gets buried.  Adjust the tap setting as necessary 

for the desired sound level near the subwoofer.
12) When the entire system is verified and tap settings throughout have been 

adjusted, replace the tap setting cover and hand tighten it until secure.  You 

can now bury the subwoofer and its wiring.
13) Make certain that the subwoofer does not rotate out of position while you 

are filling the hole.  Pack the dirt as you go for an even installation base.
14) When finished, the canopy bottom edge should be between 6” and 8” 

above the ground level.

1) Unpack the contents of the box.  Use caution when lifting the subwoofer. 

The included carrying support rope should be utilized to help remove it from 

the box.
2) Examine the silicone elbow.  Note that one end is slightly larger than the 

other. The smaller end attaches to the subwoofer body and the larger end 

attaches to the port tube. 
3) Place a stainless steel clamp ring on each end of the silicone elbow.  There 

are two different size clamp rings, one for the large end of the elbow, and one 

for the smaller end of the elbow. 
4) Attach the small end of the silicone elbow to the subwoofer body port 

opening as shown.
5) Before tightening the clamp, determine the orientation that you would like 

for the port tube.  The speaker wire comes out of one edge of the subwoofer 

and the tap setting adjustment is located near an edge of the rear panel.  You 

can rotate the elbow so that the speaker wire connection and tap setting 

adjustment are best suited for your installation.
6) Once the orientation that you desire for the port tube is set, tighten the 

clamp ring using a screwdriver until the ring is fully tightened.  Making a good 

seal is important both to prevent water penetration as well as to prevent audio 

issues with the subwoofer.
7) Attach the canopy to the large end of the silicone elbow.  Make sure that 

the tube is fully seated and forms a 90 degree angle with the subwoofer.  

When the tube is properly seated in the elbow, tighten the clamp ring using 

a screwdriver until the ring is fully tightened. Making a good seal is important 

both to prevent water penetration as well as to prevent audio issues with the 

subwoofer.
8) Adjust the tap setting switch.   Remove the tap setting switch cover by turning 

the cover counter-clockwise.  Under the cover is the tap setting switch.  Set 

the tap setting to the appropriate position.  Use the 8Ω setting for installation 

with low impedance amplifiers or receivers.  Use any of the 70v/100v settings 

for use with 70v/100v amplifiers.   Due to the nature of 70v/100v technology, 

better bass performance will typically result if the subwoofer is used at 8Ω, 

however the AW10-LSUB-BR is designed  for operation at 70v/100v.
