7. OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES
As with all Final products, the S100 is designed to provide the highest level of performance.. However, the S100 still has limits that should be observed..
If the S100 begins to overload or heavily distort, turn down the bass or volume..
If the S100 overwhelms the output of the main speakers, turn down the volume..
If the main speakers sound strained, raise the S100 crossover frequency..
If the bass sounds loose or dislocated, adjust the phase or placement of the subwoofer until the problem disappears..
Placement of the subwoofer within the room is critical to the operation of the S100.. Recommended locations include the center of the front wall, either front corner, or the center of the side walls..
If the S100 malfunctions, turn the subwoofer off and on.. If the problem persists, contact your dealer for additional troubleshooting..
