Pre-adjusting the subwoofer vol- ume

1. Set the VOLUME control to minimum (0).

2. Turn on the power to all other components.

3. Press the POWER switch to the ON position.

The power indicator on the rear panel lights up

green.

4. Play a source that contains low-frequency

sounds. Adjust the amplifier’s volume control to

the desired listening level.

ume balance between the subwoofer and the

front speakers. In most cases, set the control to a

level at which you hear slightly more bass than
