Your Emotiva X-Ref 10 DSP Powered Subwoofer was carefully packed and should reach you in perfect condition. If you notice any shipping damage or other issues when you unpack it, please contact Emotiva immediately.

Gently remove your X-Ref 10 from the packing carton and remove all wrappings and shipping material. Use care when handling or lifting the X-Ref 10 since it is quite heavy. Avoid pressing directly on the woofer cone or the surround, and avoid resting your X-Ref 10 on its front, top, or back while unpacking it.

PLEASE NOTE: THE POWER CORD AND SPIKED FEET ARE INCLUDED IN THE LOWER PACKAGING MATERIAL! DO NOT DISCARD PACKAGING MATERIAL WITHOUT FULLY UNPACKING ALL PARTS!

It is important to save the box and all packing materials in case your X-Ref 10 subwoofer ever needs to be moved or shipped back to the factory for service.

Please keep your sales receipt in a safe place. It is the easiest way to verify your purchase date for warranty purposes, and may also be required if you ever have to file an insurance claim.

We truly value customer feedback and would like to hear from you.
