The placement of your new 

MIRAGE

®

subwoofer is critical to its

performance. The thr

ee most common locations include: in the cor

ner

of the r

oom (which can r

esult in a boomy or exaggerated low

fr

equency r

esponse), placement along one wall but out of the cor

ner

(moderate bass performance with incr

eased fidelity over cor

ner

placement), or alongside a fr

ont speaker (cr

eating a better blend with

the fr

ont speaker

, but sacrificing overall volume).  Experimentation with

subwoofer placement is highly encouraged, as slight adjustments can

cr

eate large benefits in sound r

epr
oduction.  T

o

 further test subwoofer

placement, install the subwoofer temporarily in your main listening

position and while playing a familiar piece of music, walk ar

ound the

listening r

oom until you find the best sounding position.  This is a

possible location for the subwoofer to be placed. 

1.

Subwoofer Level Contr

ol - This knob can be adjusted to contr

ol the

level of output fr

om your subwoofer

.  The level chosen should allow

the subwoofer to blend its output with that of the r

est of your

audio system. 

2.

Status Indicator – The LED found on the fr

ont panel will illuminate

when the subwoofer is connected to an AC sour

ce and the unit is

active.  The LED will display in r

ed when the unit is plugged in but

is not r

eceiving a signal and will display gr

een when the unit is

active.

3.

Fr

equency Contr

ol  –  This contr

ol allows for the adjustment of the

low-pass filter

.  Adjustments can infinitely be made fr

om 40Hz to

120Hz.  This will determine the highest fr

equency that the

subwoofer will play

.  

4.

Phase Contr

ol – This switch allows for the adjustment of the phase

of the subwoofer

, in r

elation to the speakers used in your system,

either 0 degr

ees or 180 degr

ees.   

5.

Filter Mode – This switch allows for the selection of either Filter On

or Filter Of

f. (Please see the connections section for suggestions on

which mode is appr

opriate for your installation).

6.

Power Mode – This switch

can be set to either On, Of

f

or Auto.  If the switch is in

the Of

f position, the

subwoofer will not power

up.  If the switch is in the On

position, it will constantly

remain on.  If the switch is

set to the Auto position,

when a signal is pr

esent the

subwoofer will tur

n on and

will automatically tur

n of

f

several minutes after a signal

is no longer pr

esent.

7.

Sub In – This input is an RCA

type mono input. 

8.

High-Level Input – These ar

e

5-way binding post type

speaker connectors. The

High-Level inputs ar

e

designed to be used on

receivers or amplifiers that

do not incorporate any RCA

type subwoofer outputs. If

your r

eceiver is equipped

with an RCA type subwoofer

output, these speaker level inputs should not be utilized.

Caution:

All power should be turned of

f to your system before any

connections are made.  Careful attention should be taken to

ensure that all electronic components are not connected to an

AC source. Not doing so could result in potential damage to the

system. 

Ther

e ar

e two mutually exclusive methods to connect your subwoofer

to your r

eceiver

.  

1.

On the r

ear of the r

eceiver ther

e should be a single RCA type jack

marked “Subwoofer Out”. Connect a single RCA cable fr

om that

jack to the RCA Sub In (#7) on the r

ear of the subwoofer

.  A

standar

d male to male RCA cable is needed.  

2.

After connecting the single low level Sub In (#7) connection, plug

your 

MIRAGE

®

subwoofer into an AC outlet. Do not use the AC

outlet on the r

ear of your r

eceiver

.
