1

Set the VOLUME control to minimum (0).

2

Turn on the power of all the other
components.

3

Press the STANDBY/ON button to turn on
the subwoofer.

4

Play a source and adjust the amplifier’s
volume control to the desired listening level.

5

Adjust the HIGH CUT control to the position
where the desired response can be
obtained.

Normally, set the control to the level a little higher

than the main speaker’s rated minimum reproducible

frequency*.

* The main speaker’s rated minimum reproducible

frequency can be looked up in the speakers’ catalog
or owner’s manual.

Before using the subwoofer, adjust the subwoofer to obtain the optimum volume and tone balance between the subwoofer and
the main speakers by following the procedures described below.

6

Increase the volume gradually to adjust the
volume balance between the subwoofer and
the main speakers.

Normally, set the control to the level where you can

obtain a little more bass effect than when this unit is
not used. If the desired response cannot be obtained,
adjust the HIGH CUT control and the VOLUME
control again.

7

Set the PHASE switch to the position which
gives you the better bass sound.

Normally, set the switch to the REV (reverse) position.

If the desired response cannot be obtained, set the
switch to the NORM (normal) position.

Once the volume balance between the subwoofer and
the main speakers is adjusted, you can adjust the
volume of your whole sound system by using the
amplifier’s volume control.
However, if you change the main speakers to others,
you must make this adjustment again.

For adjusting the VOLUME control, the HIGH CUT
control and the PHASE switch, refer to “Frequency
characteristics” on the next page.
