PERFORMANCE TIPS
Setting the Level
1. If connecting to a foxLv2.2:
To ensure adequate range using the slider control,
make sure the auxiliary cable insert connected to
standard audio cable (between foxL sub out and
foxLO Input). Removing the auxiliary cable is optional
for all other foxL models, doing so will increase the
input signal to the foxLO.
2. Given its tiny size and the variety of music and
sources used, it
IS
easy to overload the foxLO...
make small adjustments from the center position
to find your optimum bass level.
3. Experiment with a range of music when setting
your foxLO level.
(For units without subwoofer out –
such as a Jawbone Jambox –
see “Direct Connection”
instructions below.)
Direct Connection of foxLO to
Speakers without a Subwoofer Output
(i.e., Jawbone Jambox)
1. Remove the short “attenuation” insert cable attached
to the included audio cable.
2. Connect the audio cable from phone/tablet/PC etc.
headphone jack to the foxLO AUDIO IN (
B
)
3. To avoid a spark, connect the foxLO to power
in this order:
A. First, push the POWER button (
E
) in to the
ON position.
B. Next, connect the AC charger’s right-angle barrel
connector to the foxLO DC IN 24V DC (
F
).
C. Connect Audio Out (
A
) to Speaker (Jambox)
Aux/Audio in
(see Fig. 1 above)
D. Then, connect the AC charger to the wall outlet.
A blue LED indictor will light.
4. Set the speaker (i.e., Jambox) to its max level
setting whenever in use and control volume
from the audio source (laptop, tablet, phone)
5. See next section to adjust foxLO LEVEL and
LIMITER positions.
Limiter, On or Off?
In the OFF position, try your favorite music at your loudest
normal listening level... if there is overload, use ON.
Placement can make a
huge
difference
in sound, so experiment!
1. Try foxLO next to or near your foxL. Or put the foxLO
on the floor up against a wall. Try both.
2. Middle of a room/desk = Least Bass.
Hard surfaces (i.e., walls, floors) = More Bass.
Placed in a corner = Most Bass.
3. Closer is louder...usually.
4. Very minor location adjustment (even a few inches)
sometimes makes a big difference.
5. It usually makes very little difference in sound whether
the orientation of your foxLO is vertical or horizontal.
