Introduction

SLS
HIGH
OUTPUT Subwoofer. When

outdoor entertainment pleasure. To get the most out of your new
subwoofer, please read this manual thoroughly before you begin
installation.
Box Contents

OUTPUT In-Ground Subwoofer box contains:
(1) In-ground subwoofer
(1) Dark brown canopy with ABS tube
(1) Rubber elbow

Subwoofer Location Selection
The Sonance Landscape Series is designed to deliver a seamless,
evenly dispersed sound field in an ‘open air’ environment. An array
of multiple satellite speakers and subwoofers should be strategically
placed to minimize ‘hot spots’ and ‘nulls’ as you move around the
outdoor entertainment area. See Figure 1.
As a general guideline, (1) subwoofer will cover about
2000 square feet of listening area
Figure 1 shows the
SLS HIGH
OUTPUT placed along the perimeter
of the entertainment area.
Select a central location for the subwoofer if using only one subwoofer
(see figure 1) if using multiple subwoofers, select locations that are
the same distance from the main listening area.
Amplifier Power Planning
The maximum number of satellites and subwoofers that can be
used in a system will depend on the quantity of amplifier power
available.
Before beginning an installation use the chart below to calculate
the amplifier power your installation will require. Multiple
amplifiers may be required in large installations.
