Power Connection

Connect the power cord to an AC outlet only after making all other connections to the subwoofer. This will avoid any chance of accidentally activating the subwoofer while wiring. The AC cord should be plugged into its own wall outlet or into a quality power strip. Avoid using a switched outlet on the rear panel of another component. The subwoofer can draw more current than these outlets can provide and performance will suffer. Once the subwoofer is hooked up and the power switch is turned on, leave it on. The automatic on/off circuitry will only activate the subwoofer in the presence of an audio signal from your audio/video system. After 7-10 minutes with no signal detected from the rest of the system, the amplifier will shut itself off and go into standby mode. When an audio signal is present, the power LED will glow green. Power consumption in the standby mode is negligible.
