PREPARE FOR INSTALLATION
your new Velodyne subwoofer provides for a number of installation options. Read all of the installation
information below in order to deter mine which installation option is best for your system. Remember to perform
all installation procedures with system power turned off to prevent possible damage.
Placement
The first step in installing your new eq-Max sub is to determine where it will be placed in the room. Unpack the
system carefully and use the following guidelines in order to find the best room placement option.
True subwoofers operate at extremely low frequencies which are primarily omni-directional. Keep in mind that
frequency response and output level can be drastically influenced by placement, depending on the acoustic
properties of the listening room. To obtain optimum output from your subwoofer, try placing it within a foot of a
corner. This location will offer the greatest output levels and optimum low frequency extension. If at all possible,
your subwoofer should be placed along a wall. The worst location for a subwoofer is typically far away from any
walls and close to the center of your room, or close to a doorway or opening into another room. Avoid these
locations when possible. When using a pair of Velodyne subwoofers in stereo, it is preferable to feed each
subwoofer with one channel and place each subwoofer near the satellite of the same channel.
Depending on the size and type of furnishings in the room, perfect placement may not be possible. Finding the
best location within your environment will likely require some experimentation. We suggest you experiment with
the location during setup to find what sounds best to you when seated in your typical listening position.
For more information on placement, please refer to Velodyne’s Subwoofer Placement Recommendations Guide.
Regardless of where you install your Velodyne subwoofer, it must remain in an upright position (woofer facing
forward). Using, shipping or storing the subwoofer in any other position for an extended period of time may
result in damage to the unit not covered by warranty.
Caution!
This subwoofer has electronics built into the cabinet. Do not place the cabinet next to sources of heat
such as furnace registers, radiators, etc. Do not place the unit near sources of excessive moisture such
as evaporative coolers, humidifiers, etc. The power cord should be routed in such a way that it will not
be walked on, pinched or compressed in any way that could result in damage to the insulation or wire.
your Velodyne eq-Max subwoofer is NoT magnetically shielded. Should you find it necessary to use it with an
older CRT monitor or TV, keep it at least two feet from the monitor. experiment for correct distance by minimizing
distortion of the picture and colors.
