SETTING SUBWOOFER CONTROLS

When setting up your subwoofer and fine tuning it with your system, use music and video

soundtracks that you know well. They should contain selections with extended bass that is

continuous and repetitive. Set any tone or equalizer controls on your receiver or preamplifier

to flat (zero) and switch any loudness controls off.

Room acoustics vary. Experiment with subwoofer placement to find the best position. Certain

subwoofer positions may cause some bass frequency cancellation—when your speakers

and subwoofer are “out-of-phase” they work against each other through the crossover region

and bass is reduced. If bass sounds “weak” or “dislocated,” change the phase according

to the instructions in point 4, on page 11. When adjusting your subwoofer, remember that

bass should not be overbearing—the subwoofer should not draw attention to itself —but

it shouldn’t be “thin” or difficult to hear, either. Use the following set-up tips to fine-tune

subwoofer bass in your listening room:
