The bolt of lightning in an equilateral tri-
angle warns the user that the device has
high voltage that could result in a risk of
electric shock.
Warning: To prevent any risk of elec-
tric shock, do not remove the cover (or
the back) from the device. There are no
user-serviceable parts in this device. For
maintenance or repairs, contact a quali-
fied professional.
The exclamation mark in an equilateral
triangle warns the user that the manual

Install in accordance with the manufac-
turer's instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources
such as radiators, heat registers, stoves,
or other apparatus (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized plug. A polarized plug has two
blades with one wider than the other. The
wide bladed is provided for your safety. If
the provided plug does not fit into your
outlet, consult an electrician for replace-
ment of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from be-
ing walked on or pinched particularly at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories
specified by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod,
bracket, or table specified by the manu-
facturer, or sold with the apparatus. When
a cart is used, use caution when moving
the cart/apparatus combination to avoid
injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning
storms or when unused for long periods
of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel. Servicing is required when the
apparatus has been damaged in any way,
such as power-supply cord or plug is dam-
aged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the appara-
tus has been exposed to rain or moisture,
does not operate normally, or has been
dropped.
15. This product is a device belonging to
Class1. Only plug in the device using the
mains plug provided, which incorporates
an earth connection. The device must be
plugged into an earthed mains socket.
16. The MAINS plug is used as the discon-
nect device and shall remain readily oper-
able.
17. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or
electric shock, do not expose this appara-
tus to rain or moisture. And the apparatus
shall not be exposed to dripping or splash-
ing and that no objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, shall be placed on the ap-
paratus.
18. Do not obstruct ventilation openings
19. Do not insert any objects into the de-
vice’s ventilation openings. They could
come into contact with one of the high-
voltage components or short-circuit them
and cause a fire or electric shock. Do not
spill liquid on the device.
20. Do not attempt to repair this device
yourself. Opening it may expose you to
hazardous voltages or to other risks. Con-
tact a qualified professional for all mainte-
nance work.
21. The equipment shall be used at maxi-
mum 45 degree C ambient temperature.
22. The equipment can be used in tropi-
cal and/or moderate climates.
23. To avoid damaging your hearing, do
not listen to loudspeakers at high
volumes for long periods of time.
Listening to speakers at high volumes
can cause damage to the user’s ears
and may lead to hearing problems (tem-
porary or permanent deafness, buzz-
ing in the ears, tinnitus, hyperacusis).
Exposure to excessive volumes (over 85
dB) for more than one hour can cause ir-
reparable damage to your hearing.

User manual
Automatic timed power on / off
This subwoofer amplifier has an automatic audio signal detection system. When the switch is set to
“AUTO”, the sub will turn on immediately when an audio signal is detected at the input. In "ON” mode, the
detector is inactive and the subwoofer remains permanently on. On the other hand, if no signal is detected
coming into the subwoofer after approximately 15 minutes, the detection system will automatically place
the subwoofer in stand-by mode. In the event of prolonged absence for several days, we recommend
turning the power switch to "OFF". In the event of a storm, unplug the mains cable.
Quick adjustment
Set the crossover knob 5to the middle position for use in stereo, or to LFE for use with a primary audio-
video amplifier on an LFE output.
Adjust the volume knob 3to halfway.
Fine adjustment
•Adjust the bass level depending on the other speakers used. This adjustment can be done by using as
varied music programs as possible. The bass should be present without being too heavy.
•Adjust the phase 4(0° to 180°). The correct position is the one that subjectively provides the highest and
most balanced bass level.
•Fine tune the cut-off frequency as needed. The lower this value is set to, the deeper and fuller the bass
will sound. The higher it is, the more forceful the impacts will be. The settings are correct when all these
features are simultaneously achieved.
•Adjust the volume setting again as required.
Cable choice
To connect the subwoofer amplifier to the main amplifier, use a shielded RCA / RCA cord of an appropriate
length. If in doubt, ask your retailer to advise you on the best solution for your needs.
