Powered Subwoofer Quick Setup Instructions 

 

1) 

For the best performance, please install your subwoofer’s feet. 

2) 

For the best performance in most rooms, we recommend, if possible, placing the subwoofer in a front corner 

or along the front wall.  

3) 

Connect the subwoofer to the subwoofer output jack on your receiver using the enclosed RCA cable.  Plug 

the RCA cable into either line level input on the subwoofer. 

4) 

Turn the subwoofer’s Volume Control all the way down (fully counter-clockwise).   

5) 

Place the ‘Crossover  Bypass’ switch in the ‘ON’ position.  If your subwoofer does not have a Crossover 

Bypass switch rotate your Frequency Adjust Control to be fully clockwise. 

6) 

Using the Bass Management System in your receiver, configure all of your speakers as either SMALL or 

LARGE depending upon their bass output capabilities (refer to your receiver’s owner’s manual for 

clarification).  If the Bass Management System asks if you have a subwoofer, be sure to select YES. 

7) 

Plug the subwoofer’s power cable into an active outlet. 

8) 

Play some music or a movie with good bass content, at a moderate level. 

9) 

 turn the subwoofer’s volume control up until its output level is satisfactory relative to your main 

speakers.  Depending upon your receiver’s subwoofer output level setting, and the sensitivity of your main 

speakers, a satisfactory volume setting on the subwoofer may occur at any point on its volume control dial.  

If you find setting the subwoofer’s volume level difficult because it is too loud too ‘early on the dial’, simply 

lower your receiver’s subwoofer output level setting. This will afford you a greater degree of useful rotation 

on the subwoofer’s volume control enabling you to more easily fine tune its output level.   

10)  Put the subwoofer’s ‘Phase’ switch in the position which sounds most natural in the mid-bass. 

 

Notes

: 

• 

After setting the volume control on your subwoofer to a satisfactory level, you should be able to make subtle 

adjustments to the subwoofer’s volume level using your receiver’s ‘subwoofer output level’ control.   

• 

With high volume levels of certain types of signals, the subwoofer may be audibly strained.  If you hear the 

subwoofer “breaking-up” or distorting, simply turn the volume level down on your receiver. 

• 

If you have any difficulties please refer to the troubleshooting section in the back of your owner’s manual. 

• 

To ensure the best performance out of your subwoofer please read the enclosed owner’s manual.
