Dear customer,

Congratulations on your purchase of a Bazooka EL high-performance 

subwoofer.  At Bazooka we are fanatics about accurate music 

reproduction.  Your selection of our products for your sound system 
indicates that quality sound is also important to you too.  At SAS, we 

take great pride in manufacturing revolutionary audio products, and 

through the years of engineering expertise, hand craftsmanship and 

critical testing procedures, we have created the EL high-performance 

series of subwoofers.  We hope that you will take as much pride in 

owning and using one of these high-quality audio products as we do 

designing and manufacturing them.

When properly installed and operated, your Bazooka EL subwoofer will 

give you years of clean uninterrupted sound reproduction.  Therefore, 
we urge you to take a few minutes to carefully read through this 
manual.  It will explain how to properly build an enclosure to optimize 

performance and longevity of the subwoofer.

Sound can be deceiving.  Over time your hearing comfort level adapts 
to higher volumes of sound. What may have sounded normal can 
actually be too loud and harmful to your hearing.  Guard against this by 
setting your equipment at a safe level before your hearing adapts.

To establish a “safe level”,

Start with your volume control at a low setting.
Slowly increase the volume control until you can hear 

comfortably, clearly and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable “sound level”, make a 
note of this position and do not go above this setting

Taking a minute to do this will help prevent your hearing from being 

damaged and allow you to enjoy listening to music throughout your 

lifetime.
