SETTINGS AND OPERATION
— Continued
Using the Remote Receiver Box and Remote Transmitter
The volume and crossover frequency controls can be accessed wirelessly with
the remote transmitter, or manually on the remote receiver box itself. The crossover fre-
quency control will only operate when you are using the low or high level inputs on the
Speedwoofer amplifier. It will not operate when you use the LFE input with an A/V re-
ceiver, because your receiver will control that function. When the frequency control is
functional, experiment with it; set it between 90-120 Hz. You want the setting that best
blends the subwoofer with the satellite speakers. You should never hear the subwoofer
separately; the bass should sound as if it comes from the satellites.
The red indicators on the control knobs indicate that the subwoofer is in standby
mode. The blue indicators mean that the amplifier is on and operating. If you set the
auto/on switch to ‘On’, the indicators will always be blue. In the ‘Auto’ position they will
be red until they receive sound and the amplifier turns on and then they will change to
blue. In the ‘Auto’ mode, If there is no sound for approximately 20 minutes, the amplifier
will go into standby and the indicators will change back to red.
Setting the Subwoofer Volume
The volume of your subwoofer is controlled in three ways. First, most A/V Re-
ceivers offer bass output (or LFE) level controls in their setup menu. Second, the vol-
ume control of your A/V Receiver will control the bass output to your subwoofer. Third
is the volume control for the RSL Speedwoofer, which is located on the remote box.
To set the volume on your RSL Speedwoofer 10
tm
, begin by setting the volume
control on the remote box to the straight up (the 12 o’clock position). Then, go into the
setup menu on your A/V receiver and set its subwoofer volume to suit your tastes. After
that, final adjustments can be made with your remote receiver box.
Setting the Crossover Frequency
In a home theater system, your A/V receiver will be hooked to the LFE input of
the RSL Speedwoofer. This will utilize the crossover function in your A/V receiver in-
stead of the one in your Speedwoofer. If your A/V receiver has a menu choice for the
subwoofer’s crossover frequency, set it to 100 Hz. In rooms where a little more warmth
in the sound may be desired, you can set the subwoofer crossover a little higher. How-
ever, we don’t recommend setting it much higher than 120 Hz. The goal of a subwoofer
should be that it doesn’t intrude. This means your system shouldn’t sound as if there is
a separate subwoofer operating. Setting the crossover at too high of a frequency will
cause the Speedwoofer to become distinguishable.
