SETUP Controls

This menu is accessed by pressing the ENTER (centre) button for more than three seconds, and gives access to the following options, selected by the UP and DOWN buttons:

LOWPASS- This is used to adjust the subwoofer’s upper frequency limit to achieve a correct balance with the main speakers. The LEFT and RIGHT buttons give a range of 50Hz to 150Hz. Attempting to increase the limit beyond 150Hz switches the subwoofer filter out, into so called LFE mode (Low Frequency Effects), where the filters in the AV receiver are left to set the transition to the main speakers, generally at 80Hz. This is the most common form of operation, but refer to the manual of your AV receiver for more details. Sometimes, in a difficult acoustic environment, it is beneficial to provide additional filtering within the subwoofer, even though the AV receiver has been set in LFE mode.

PHASE- This can be adjusted between 0 degrees (in phase) to 180 degrees (out of phase), using the LEFT and RIGHT buttons. The correct setting depends on room acoustics and the position of the subwoofer in the room. Starting with the 0 degrees setting, then the 180 degree setting, see which one results in the greatest amount of bass at the listening position, being aware that all bass frequencies should sound evenly balanced. This is generally easier to achieve using music. If neither setting is satisfactory, try the intermediate settings.

SHELF- This gives either a progressive increase or reduction of output with reducing frequency, down to 35Hz. A range from -6dB to +6dB is available using the LEFT and RIGHT buttons respectively. This control can be used to tailor to subwoofer more accurately to the room or to personal taste. This function is intended for advanced users or installers, and for general use should be set to 0dB (IE no boost or cut applied).

PEQ GAIN- Parametric Equaliser gives a boost or cut to a narrow range of frequencies to compensate for room resonances and other effects, and is again aimed at advanced users and installers. A range from -6dB to +6dB is available using the LEFT and RIGHT buttons respectively.

PEQ WIDE- This selects the width of frequencies boosted or cut. Use either the LEFT or RIGHT buttons to select between NARROW (Q=6), NORMAL (Q=3.5) or WIDE (Q=2).

PEQ FREQUENCY- Selects the frequency at which the maximum boost or cut occurs. Use the LEFT and RIGHT buttons to vary between 20Hz and 100Hz.

POWER- Use either the LEFT or RIGHT buttons to select subwoofer ON, OFF or AUTO. In AUTO mode, the subwoofer will switch on in the presence of a signal, reverting to STANDBY if no signal is detected for approximately 15 minutes. In ON mode, the subwoofer is left powered continuously. ON state is indicated by the light behind the speaker cloth glowing green, while OFF or STANDBY is indicated by red.

BRIGHTNESS- Use either the LEFT or RIGHT buttons to set display brightness to LOW, MEDIUM and HIGH. EXIT- Use either LEFT or RIGHT buttons to select YES or NO, then centre button to exit to the initial default screen.
