1.  Power Indicator.

 This light is illuminated blue when the subwoofer is 

turned on and playing, and it illuminates red when the subwoofer is in on, 
but in 

Standby

 mode .

2. 

V

olume Control.

 Volume control gives the ability to match the output 

level of the subwoofer to the level of your satellite/main speakers . The 
subwoofer output will increase as this control is rotated clockwise . To 
prevent damage to the subwoofer during installation, turn the volume 
down before turning on your subwoofer .

3.  Crossover.

 This controls the crossover frequency between 50 Hz and 

160 Hz . 

Set to 50 Hz - 160 Hz:

 the subwoofer will reproduce frequencies 

below 50 Hz . Rotating the control clockwise will smoothly increase this 
frequency range up to 160 Hz . 

Set to LFE:

 If your processor does not have its own subwoofer 

crossover frequency control, rotate this control until the bass sounds 
natural . If the mid-bass sounds natural but you want more low bass, 
turn the crossover frequency down a little, then turn the volume up 
by about the same amount . This increases the low-bass output while 
leaving the mid-bass output the same .

4.  Turn-on Mode Switch.

 In addition to the master Power Rocker Switch, 

the subwoofer has 3 additional 

Turn-On

 modes .

a. 

When the switch is set to ON, the subwoofer will remain powered on 
and will not turn off when audio signal disappears . 

b. 

When the switch is set to AUTO, after approximately 15 minutes with 
no signal, the subwoofer will enter 

Standby

 mode . It will turn back on 

when an audio signal is detected . 

c. 

When the switch is in the OFF position, the subwoofer will not turn on, 
regardless of the Power Rocker Switch position .

5.  Power Rocker Switch.

 Press the top of this rocker switch to turn the 

subwoofer's master power ON or OFF . 

6.  Voltage Selection Switch.

 This switch is used to select the compatible 

electrical voltage for the installation location . Please check with your local 
electrical requirements before making changes to this setting .

7.  Phase.

 This controls the relative phase of the subwoofer with respect to 

your other speakers . Use this to help blend the subwoofer with the rest of 
the system .
