Specific tips

Many processors/receivers provide extensive bass management capabilities to set the cut-off frequencies for both subwoofer and speakers. If using the bass management of the processor/receiver, set the controls of the Sub 600 as followed:

SUB Lowpass = 150 Hz (at the very right)

SAT Highpass = Flat

 

CAUTION

Damage of Small Satellite Speakers

 

 

 

Selecting the correct frequency depends to a large extend on the main speakers.

 

 

Sometimes main speakers are specifically intended to work with a subwoofer. In such

 

 

cases, the main speakers can get damaged by a full-range amplifier signal.

 

 

If in doubt, check the instruction manual for the main speakers for any restrictions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The table below offers some setting tips for different speaker and amplifier combinations.

 

 

This should only be taken as rough guidelines, as the best setup can just be found by

 

 

experimenting.
