Method #3 is not recommended with large main speakers.
2. If you have small (bookshelf) main speakers...
1st Choice: Method #1
2nd Choice: Method #3
If your main speakers are smaller
&R speakers receive a signal containing only information that falls within their specified frequency response range, they exhibit reduced distortion, greater dynamic range and power handling. Use the 75Hz or 110Hz high pass setting.
Alternately, you can run small main speakers full range and use the subwoofer to reproduce all the low bass fre- quencies below their response capabilities (Methods #2 and 4). While simple, this configuration does not remove the burden of low frequencies from the L & R speakers and may limit their output at higher volumes.
! What connection options are available in my system?
1)If you have a separate preamplifier and main amplifier, all four of the connection methods are available to you. Method #1 is recommended.
2)If you have an integrated amplifier or receiver (hereafter called “receiver”) with
3)If you have a receiver with
4)If you have a receiver with
5)If your receiver or processor has a "Subwoofer Out" or "LFE Out" connection, you may use any of Methods #1 through #4, or simply connect the "Subwoofer Out" or "LFE Out" jack to the SubTwo I Controller. See the Use of the LFE Input and LFE Gain Control section for more information.
Detailed descriptions and diagrams of all four connection methods are found on pages
!Explanation of Features
The VOLUME CONTROL allows you to adjust the volume of the subwoofer relative to the rest of the system. Many listeners make the mistake of setting subwoofers too loud, which can cause excess bloat and loss of detail and musicality. A properly calibrated subwoofer blends in with the speakers and does not call attention to itself. Observe the following guidelines for volume setting:
Turn down the volume control on the SubOne i Controller to its lowest position
From this point on, the volume control on your receiver/preamplifier will control the overall volume of your sys-
tem, including the subwoofer. | 5 |
