SAFETY PRECAUTION: Before proceeding with this

FINE TUNING

Once you have the rest of your speakers positioned in the room and have

set speaker distances and calibrated speaker levels with your Processor

or A/V Receiver, it’s time for a little fine tuning of the subwoofer(s).

Subwoofer Controls

When setting the subwoofer controls use music and video soundtracks

that you know well. They should contain selections with extended bass

that is continuous and repetitive. When you are adjusting your subwoofer,

remember: Bass should not be overbearing—the subwoofer should not

draw attention to itself—but sound shouldn’t be ‘thin’ or difficult to hear.

Certain subwoofer placement may result in bass frequency cancellations—

this occurs when your front speakers and subwoofer are ‘out-of-phase’, in

other words, they work against each other through the crossover region.

This will result in bass being reduced. If bass sounds weak or dislocated

adjust the phase according to the instructions that apply to your subwoofer

in the setup procedures that follow.

Before connecting your wired subwoofer, please read this section

to determine which setup option best suits your needs.

(See Dealer

if you require additional information.)

Before connecting your wireless transmitter to receiver or preamp/

processor, ensure you have “paired” subwoofer and transmitter,

(refer back to previous section).
