Setup, calibrating and integration

What’s to know? Well, first of all, setting up an SV Subwoofer is pretty darn easy. There are a few key things to get right though, if you want to get the most out of your sub…

Unpacking. You’re probably eager to fire up your sub (we’re the same way), but take time to carefully unpack your sub. Set the box and other protective shipping coverings aside, just in case you need to return the sub for any reason.

Location. They say it’s ALL about location right? It’s the same with setting up your subwoofer. So, where to put it? Go for a corner if you can, and avoid putting your sub where it might adjoin large open areas. Studies have shown that the deepest and flattest bass response is typically attained when a subwoofer is placed within a few feet of one of your home theater’s corners. The upright configuration of SV Subwoofers makes this easy. Whether you put the sub in front or to the rear of your seating area makes surprisingly little difference. Deep home theater bass, like that from Dolby Digital (DD) “5.1 channel” DVDs and Laserdiscs is non-directional. You can’t tell where it is coming from, even though you can hear, and feel it (and how!).

Hook-up (see fig. 1). There are a variety of ways to configure your new sub. Usually, a simple mono, shielded 75 Ohm A/V RCA type cable (a.) is used to take the subwoofer output of your DD/DTS surround sound receiver (b.) and feed the low-level input of the sub’s amp. There is no need to “split” the signal and feed both inputs on the sub, since the inputs are “summed” before the amp stage.

!NOTE: Stop now if you aren’t TOTALLY familiar with your receiver’s manual. Ensure all power to your equip- ment is off when making these connec-

tions. Also, be certain your power outlet can handle a minimum of 200 watts. (Use of “convenience outlets” on receivers are not recommended for your SVS PC).
