Wisdom Audio SAS Subwoofer, Owner'S Manual

Setting Up the SAS

The unusual form factor of the SAS allows it to be used effectively in many situ-
ations where a more conventional “bass cube” would be either cumbersome 
or impossible. Examples include locating it behind a couch, in the small space 
between the couch and the wall, or laying flat under a set of risers in a home 
theater with multiple rows of seating.

The SAS also includes two locations for the exit of the Regenerative Transmis-
sion Line

™

. As shipped from the factory, the vent is located on the end of the 

SAS enclosure. However, if your location would be better served by the vent 
being on the side, your dealer can easily swap the grille for the solid aluminum 
plate that covers that location. There is no difference in performance, but often 
a great difference in application flexibility. 

As with most subwoofers, the SAS requires equalization for fully optimizing its 
performance. This EQ may be provided by any of the following the Wisdom 
Audio products:

•  SC-1 System Controller (if one exists in the system)
•  SW-1 Subwoofer Amplfier (which includes on-board DSP-based EQ)
•  MiniDSP-1 Signal Processor

When properly adjusted and listening to music, you should not be aware that 
the SAS is active in the system (until you turn it off and realize how much it has 
been contributing). The proper level setting will allow the SAS to integrate quite 
seamlessly into a high quality system.
