Adding a subwoofer to your speaker system expands the 
bandwidth of the bass range. However, if the sub-
woofer’s reproduction bandwidth or sound output level 
is improperly adjusted, the overall performance may 
decrease, as shown in the graphs below.

 

• Adjust the SL-107 output level and crossover fre-

quency to suit your listening room and connected 
speakers.

• When the unit is connected to an amplifier via the 

SPEAKER LEVEL INPUT terminals, setting the 
OUTPUT LEVEL knob near the center position will 
create a well-balanced sound level on most speakers.

• Be aware that you might set the subwoofer to a high 

output level because superbass-range sound is less 
audible than other sound ranges. To obtain well-bal-
anced frequency characteristics, set the output level to 
a slightly lower level than seems optimal. (This will 
also prevent the input of signals that are too strong.)

 

Be careful not to allow the input of excessive power. 
Input levels that greatly exceed normal situations can 
damage the SL-107. Also note that switching operations 
at the amplifier may generate excessive noise that may 
result in damage. When using switches at the amplifier, 
first lower the volume to prevent accidental damage.

 

The placement of the SL-107 can greatly affect the 
sound that is produced. In general, a good bass sound can 
be obtained by installing the subwoofer in a front corner, 
or at one-third the width of the wall, as shown.
