Setting up

Ensure the POWER switch is in the OFF position. You can operate the SFX subwoofer in two modes, AUTO and ON. Set to AUTO, the unit remains switched off until a signal is present (power saving), set to ON the unit runs continuously. Connect the SFX subwoofer to a convenient mains socket using the lead and

plug supplied.

Set the SFX subwoofer VOLUME to MIN, PHASE SWITCH to 0°, CROSSOVER to AV/LFE. Set your 5.1 or 6.1 receiver/decoder to SMALL SPEAKERS, LFE or SUB output to ON and play a favourite disc. Switch the SFX subwoofer to ON and set the VOLUME to AV/LFE. Assess the bass signal strength and adjust VOLUME accordingly. The purpose of a subwoofer is to enhance the bass or low frequencies but not to overpower the music or film dialogue. Set up can be checked by using the noise signal calibration facility in most 5.1 or 6.1 receivers/decoders.

Positioning

As the SFX subwoofer produces low frequencies only, it is difficult to detect its location by ear. It can therefore be placed anywhere in the room, but optimum performance will be gained by locating the subwoofer between the front pair of speakers. Bass output will increase next to a wall or especially in a corner; so use the volume control to compensate if moving your subwoofer around.

Auto power/Sleep functions

The SFX subwoofer can be left permanently on in AUTO mode, under which conditions it will revert to 'sleep' mode after approximately 20 minutes. If not using your subwoofer for some time, switch off and remove the power cable from the mains outlet.

Power requirements

Check that the voltage rating displayed on the rear panel is correct for your area before connecting. If it is incorrect, move the voltage selector on the rear panel to the appropriate voltage. The panel mounted fuse should also be changed to the correct rating (see below, under FUSE PROTECTION). If in any doubt, consult your Dealer or Authorised Service Agent.
