CALIBRATING THE SUBWOOFER - with the main monitors
LFE Gain
Range: 0 to +14dB
The LFE channel can be boosted up to 18dB using this parameter.
Polarity
Range: 0 or 180º
If the Subwoofer is correctly placed, setting the Polarity parameter at 180º should result in a full Phase cancellation at the set Cross

The integration of the AIR Base subwoofer with the AIR monitors requires

Initial setting
During calibration of the AIR Base's DSP software, we have come up with default settings that we found optimal in our listening room. If you're placing the AIR Base at the same distance from the listening position as your AIR Monitors, the default phase settings can be used as initial guidelines for setting the phase. If the distances are significantly different, these values are not likely to be optimal.
Adjustment

Iteration
You may need to iterate quite a bit, maybe readjust the level calibration a bit too. You may even want to reconsider your initial choice of
