Frequency

The Frequency control determines the frequency below which the sub- woofer will play. This frequency is manually controlled and is continu- ously variable between 45-150Hz. You can experiment with which position works best with your main speakers by turning this control until the sound of the low frequency coming from the subwoofer is nicely blended with the sound of your main speakers.

Crossover Setting Tip When using small speakers (speakers with a 6" or less main woofer) set this control toward the "150" position. When using larger speakers (speakers with an 8" or more main woofer) set the control closer to the "45 position.

Volume

When setting the Volume control at the subwoofer, begin with your main speakers playing at a normal listening level and the Volume control at the subwoofer completely in the off position (counterclockwise position). Then, begin to turn up the Volume at the subwoofer slowly (clockwise) until the desired bass response is achieved. Bass output will then be regulated by your A/V receiver’s volume control.

Volume Setting Tip

Have one person sit at the regular listening position, and a second person turn up the Volume at the subwoofer until the desired bass output is achieved at the listening position. Remember most natural sounding bass results when bass reproduction is balanced with the main speakers.

Phase

The phase control will fine tune the bass performance. Have one person sit in the listening position and a second person toggle the switch between Normal and Reverse to achieve the desired bass output.

Croisement

La fréquence de croisement détermine quelles fréquences seront amplifiés par le caisson sous-grave. Cette fréquence de coupure peut être contrôlée manuellement et est continuellement variable entre 45-150Hz. Vous pou- vez expérimenter avec la position de cette commande jusqu' à ce que les basses fréquence produites par le caisson soient bien intégrées avec le son de vos enceintes principales.

Conseil pratique sur le réglage de la fréquence de croisement

Si des haut-parleurs de petite taille sont utilisés (enceintes avec des hautparleurs principaux de 15cm ou moins) placez cette commande vers la position "150". Si vous utilisez de plus gros haut-parleurs (enceintes avec des haut-parleurs principaux de 20cm ou plus) placez la commande plus près de la posi- tion "45”.

Volume

Pour régler le Volume du caisson, com- mencez par faire jouer vos hautparleurs prin- cipaux à un niveau normal d'écoute et avec la commande de Volume au caisson complète- ment à la position off (tourner le contrôle dans le sens contraire des aiguilles d'une montre). Puis, commencez à augmenter le Volume du caisson lentement (dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre) jusqu'à ce que la réponse de basses fréquences désirée soit réalisée. Le Volume du caisson sera ensuite réglé par votre commande de Volume au récepteur.

Conseil pratique pour le réglage du Volume

Le réglage du Volume se fait plus facilement avec l’aide dune deuxième personne. Faites qu’une personne soit assise à la position régulière d'écoute, et que la deuxième personne aug- mente le Volume au caisson jusqu’à ce que le niveau de Volume désirée soit réalisé à la position d'écoute. Rappelez-vous que les résultats les plus satisfaisant sont réalisé quand la reproduction basses fréquences est équilibrée avec les haut-parleurs principaux.

Phase

Vous pouvez expérimenter le contrôle des phases en alternant entre

«Normal » et « Reverse », pour déterminer quelle position offre un meilleur rendement. Cependant dans la plupart des cas en laissant le commutateur dans la position « Normal » l’appareil produira ses meilleurs résultats.
