Specifications
21 em [11") subwoofer: polypropylene cone.
BASH ® 150Wrms amplifier: high-performance digital amplification tech-
nology for high power and high quality sound.
Phase selector: subwoofer/loudspeaker coupling optimization.
Auto on/standby system: the
BASH ® amplifier automatically switches on
or off [standby).
Soft clipping: avoids saturation.
LFE direct input: direct mono input to connect to the subwoofer output of home theatre amplifiers.
MDF manufactured enclosure: rigid cabinets free of internal resonance.
Profiled vent port: vigorous bass reproduction, no distortion effect.
Settings
Autopower
The
Cub
3 features
an automatic audio signal detector.
When the
power control is set on auto-mode, the subwoofer
will automatically switch on as soon as an audio signal is
detected. When set to power on, the signal detector is disable
and the subwoofer is continuously on.
Conversely,
if no signal is detected during a period of about
3 minutes, the detector automatically set the subwoofer to
standby mode.
If
you expect not to use the subwoofer for a long period, it is
recommended to set the power selector to "off".
In case of stormy weather, unplug the power cable.

Connections
Low-level inputs
on
RCA
When using atwo-channel
amplifier
with pre-out line outputs, the
Cub
3
must
be
connected through
RCA
stereo inputs "line inputs Right/
Left" [fig. Al.
LFE input
When using
an
audio/video
multi-
channel amplifier, the single
LFE
input of the
Cub
3 should
be
connected to the mono "Subwoofer"
output of the audio/video
amplifier
[fig. Bl.
In
that case,
all
controls
of the
Cub
3
will
be
off, except the
volume control. Considering the
fact that the audio/video
amplifier
already features
all
the necessary
functions, this configuration is
recommended for home theatre
use only.

SIB&CUB3
User
manual
Positioning
Contrary to conventional high fidelity loudspeakers which
have to
be
placed at a reasonable distance from walls and
the listening area corners, we advise
you
to place your Cub
3
subwoofer in a corner of the listening area. If the subwoofer is
placed against only one
wall
or
too
far
from the walls, the very
large wavelength
of
the bass delivered
by
the subwoofer
will
excite the resonance of the listening room in
an
unpredictable
way.
Frequency response linearity
will
then
be
damaged and
therefore the sound rendition
will
be
affected
flack
of
depth
,
"
boomy
sound
", poor
bass,
difficult or
impossible
coupling
with
the
other
used
loudspeakers).
If you put the Cub
3
in a corner, the resonant frequencies
of the room
will
be
more linear and predictable.
In
such a
configuration, you
will
not only benefit from
an
optimum
perception of the bass frequency range but the bass level
will
also
be
increased
by
6dB.
If a particular disposition of the room does not allow to place
the subwoofer in a corner, we recommend
you
to
try
different
configurations
until
you
find the best possible disposition.
Generally, the subwoofer should
be
placed along the front
wall
of the listening room.
Because the bass frequency waves are omni-directional, the
sound dispersion
will
not
be
affected
if
a piece of furniture
or
an object is placed between the subwoofer and the listening
area.

Running-in
period
The driver used
in
the
Cub
2 is made up of complex mechanical elements and requires
an
adaptation period before
it delivers the best of its performances. They must get adapted to the temperature and humidity conditions of
their
environment. This breaking-in period depends upon the encountered conditions and can last several weeks.
In
order to shorten this period, we advise
you
to let your subwoofer operate
for
about twenty hours at medium
level, playing standard music programs, but with a large amount of bass.
Once
the components of the speaker are
completely stabilized, it is possible to enjoy the true performances of your self powered subwoofer.

within an equilat-
eral triangle is intended to alert the user
to the presence of important operating and
maintenance [servicing]
instructions in the
literature accompanying the product.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning
storms or when unused for long periods
of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service

is damaged, liquid has been spilled
or
objects have fallen into the apparatus, the
apparatus has been exposed to rain
or
moisture, does not operate normally, or
has been dropped.
15. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or
electric shock, this apparatus should not
be exposed to rain or moisture and objects

Specifications
21 em [11 ") subwoofer: polypropylene cone.
BASH ®150Wrms amplifier: high-performance digital amplification technology
for high-power and high quality sound.
Phase selector: subwoofer/loudspeaker coupling optimization.
Auto on/standby system: the
BASH ® amplifier automatically switches on or
off [standby).
Soft-clipping: avoids saturation.
LFE direct input: direct mono input to connect to the subwoofer output of
home theatre amplifiers.
MDF manufactured enclosure: rigid cabinets free of
internal resonance.
Streamlined vented port: vigorous bass reproduction, no distortion effect.
Connections
Low-level inputs on RCA
When using atwo-channel amplifier
with pre-out line outputs, the Cub3
must be connected through RCA
stereo inputs "line inputs Right/
Left" [fig.
AI.
LFE input
When using
an audio/video multi-
channel amplifier, the single
LFE input of the Cub
3 should
be
connected to the mono "Subwoofer"
output of the audio/video amplifier
[fig. B). In that case, all controls
of the Cub3
will be off, except the
volume control. Considering the
fact that the audio/video
amplifier
already features all the necessary
functions,
this configuration is
recommended
for home theatre
use only.

CUB

User
manual
Positioning
Contrary to conventional high-fidelity loudspeakers which
have
to
be
placed at a reasonable distance from walls and
the listening area corners,
we
advise
you
to place your
Cub
3
subwoofer
in
a corner of the listening area. If the subwoofer is
placed against only one
wall
or
too far from the walls, the very
large wavelength of the bass delivered
by
the subwoofer
will
excite the resonance of the listening room in
an
unpredictable
way.
Frequency response linearity
will
then
be
damaged and
therefore the sound rendition
will
be
affected
{lack
of
depth,
"boomy
sound",
poor
bass,
difficult or impossible coupling
with
the
other
used
loudspeakers].
If
you
put the
Cub
3
in a corner, the resonant frequencies
of the room
will
be
more linear and predictable.
In
such a
configuration,
you
will
not only benefit from
an
optimum
perception of the bass frequency range but the bass level
will
'also
be
increased
by
6dB.
If a particular disposition of the room does not allow to place
the subwoofer in a corner,
we
recommend
you
to
try
different
configurations
until
you
find the best possible disposition.
Generally, the subwoofer should
be
placed along the front
wall
of the listening room.
Because the bass frequency waves are omni-directional, the
sound dispersion
will
not
be
affected if a piece of furniture
or
an
object is placed between the subwoofer and the listening
area.
