12 - SC-602 Amplifier User’s Manual 

•   VOLUME CONTROL — This control allows you to balance the output from the subwoofer to the main 

speakers in your system. This control should be set to achieve similar volume level of both the main 
speakers and subwoofer. When pressing volume up or down, the volumelevel change is shown on the 
numeric led on the front panel.

WARNING: Some manufacturers preset their receivers with the Sub-out channel signal at a minimum 

level. It is very important to verify that your receiver Sub-out channel is set to the same output level as 

your front right and left channels. Refer to your receiver manual for the individual channel level adjustment 

procedure. If your receiver Sub-out channel is set too low, the subwoofer may appear to have a weak 

output, it may sound noisy or distorted, and the Auto On/Off feature may not operate properly.

Note: The volume can also be adjusted via the volume buttons on the front panel of the amplifier. These 

buttons have the same effect as pressing the up and down volume buttons on your remote.

•   PRESETS — There are four presets, consisting of Movies, R&B – Rock, Jazz – Classical, and Games. 

As a preset is chosen, the preset is shown on the numeric led as P1 for preset 1, P2 for preset 2, etc. 
The presets provide the following characteristics for bass reproduction:

Movies:  

Maximum output and impact for explosions and other action adventure movie 
content.

R&B – Rock:  

Provides the driving bass found in today’s rock music.

Jazz – Classical:   The tightest, cleanest, lowest distortion bass. The flattest frequency response of the 

four presets.

Games:  

Maximum loudness available for the impact of video games.

Each preset has its own characteristics with respect to subsonic filter, volume differential and a single contour 
equalizer in order to optimize the listening mode for the preset.
