Speaker SUB OUTPUT, using a RCA cable and then connect
the cable to Your Subwoofer.
6. Included in the box are two sponges. These two sponges are
used to adjust the bass response. Mounted in the bass ports
on the back of the speakers they will lower the bass
response. Feel free to try what suits you best, sound wise. It
will all depend on your placement of the speakers and your

Sony TV or Denon Receiver it allows you to have
only one remote control (the TV remote) to control
basic and useful functions.
Tips
•We recommend a running-in time of your Tempo
Speakers of approximately 15-20 hours at normal
listening level before you decide on the final positioning
of the Speakers. During the running-in time the drive
units will settle in and perform as intended.
•For optimal sound performance, the best listening
position is on ear level with the speakers placed not too
far from a wall.
