SONANCE CABINET SUBWOOFERS
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a Sonance Cabinet Subwoofer. When properly installed your new subwoofer will add a solid deep bass
foundation to all your audio/video entertainment. This manual will teach you all about your new subwoofer’s many
innovative features and will show you how to get the very best performance from it. Please read it thoroughly.
Since all Sonance Cabinet Subwoofers have identical installation requirements, the directions in this manual apply to each model in
the series. This manual covers these subwoofer models: Sub 12-250, Sub 10-150, Sub 8-100.
Design and Features
Your new Sonance Cabinet Subwoofer delivers powerful, low-distortion bass, and easily blends with your room’s décor. The anodized
aluminum woofer cone and heavily-braced sealed enclosure deliver room-shaking bass from a small cabinet that gives you many
installation options. The front-mounted controls and recessed amplifier panel let you tuck your subwoofer away under a shelf or install
it flush with a wall or cabinet front.

(4) Rubber feet and screws
(4) Metal spikes
(1) IEC Power Cord (115V versions only)
Subwoofer Placement
As with any speaker, your Sonance Cabinet Subwoofer’s performance will be influenced by its placement in your listening room.
However, since our ears do not hear directional sound at deep bass frequencies, your subwoofer’s placement is not as critical to its over-
all performance as is the placement of your system’s other speakers. Therefore, your subwoofer will deliver superior performance
from a wide variety of room locations.
The following guidelines — plus some
experimentation — will help you get the
best performance possible from your
subwoofer in your listening room.
Placing the subwoofer as close as
possible to the same plane as your main
(left and right) speakers will help your
subwoofer’s sound properly blend with
the sound from your main speakers,
creating a solid, integrated soundstage
that enhances the impact of music
and films. We suggest starting with
the subwoofer in line with your left
and right speakers, somewhere
between either speaker and the side
wall (see Figure 2).
Your subwoofer’s location relative to
walls will influence the amount of bass it
produces — placing the subwoofer next
to a wall will increase bass output; plac-
ing it in a corner will maximize its bass output. However, corner placement can increase standing waves in the room (peaks and dips
in bass response related to the room’s dimensions) that can make the subwoofer’s bass performance sound uneven at different lis-
tening locations. Experiment with different subwoofer locations until you find one that produces strong bass that sounds clear
(without boominess) at the seating locations while maintaining the sound’s impact.

Your local authorized Sonance dealer is an expert in audio/video system planning and installation. We strongly recommend that you
work with your dealer to ensure that you get the best performance possible from your subwoofer.
NOTE: THESE SUBWOOFERS CAN PRODUCE ENOUGH BASS ENERGY TO CAUSE OBJECTS IN THE ROOM TO RATTLE OR BUZZ
DURING PASSAGES WITH VERY STRONG BASS. IF THIS HAPPENS, TRY RELOCATING THE ITEMS. IF THAT FAILS TO STOP THE RATTLING YOU
MAY HAVE TO REMOVE THE ITEMS.
Installing the Subwoofer Flush in a Wall or Cabinet
Your subwoofer’s flush grille and recessed amplifier panel let you install it flush with a wall or cabinet surface for a clean, uncluttered
appearance. To allow for proper ventilation when installing the subwoofer this way, leave at least 1” of clearance around the top and
sides of the subwoofer and 1” of clearance behind it. If it is not possible to provide the necessary clearance, install a fan that will bring
cooling air into the rear of the compartment containing the subwoofer.
Attaching the Spikes
Your subwoofer comes with a set of rubber feet installed for use on wood or other hard floor
surfaces, and it also includes a set of metal spikes for use on carpeting.
To attach the spikes, use a screwdriver to remove the rubber feet and screw the spikes into
the threaded inserts (see Figure 3). Once installed, the height of the spikes can be
adjusted so the subwoofer will sit level on an uneven floor.
Subwoofer Rear Panels
Figure 4 shows the controls and connections located on the subwoofer rear panel.

SONANCE CABINET SUBWOOFERS
Voltage Selector
Sonance Cabinet Subwoofers are equipped with a Voltage Selector switch that is
factory-set to the proper position for the country where the subwoofer is sold.
Subwoofers sold in the United States are set for 115V operation; subwoofers sold in
other countries are set for 230V operation. The subwoofer’s proper operating volt-
age is shown on the switch itself (see Figure 5).
The Voltage Selector switch is not user-selectable, and has a plastic cover to
prevent it from being accidentally changed. If you need to operate your
subwoofer on an AC voltage that is different from the one showing on the switch,
contact your Authorized Sonance Dealer or Service Center.
Replacing the AC Fuse
Your subwoofer is factory-equipped with the following AC fuse:
115V Version:
Sub 12-250 — 5A, 250V slo-blo; Sub 10-150 and Sub 8-100 — 2A, 250V slo-blo
230V Version:
Sub 12-250 — 2.5A, 250V slo-blo; Sub 10-150 and Sub 8-100 — 1A, 250V slo-blo
To replace the fuse, unplug the power cord from the Power Cord Connector and use a
screwdriver to remove the fuse holder (see Figure 6).
CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST FIRE, REPLACE THE FUSE WITH ONLY
THE SAME TYPE AND RATING.
Subwoofer Connections
Power Connection
Your Sonance Cabinet Subwoofer features a removable IEC power connector (see Figure 6).
(A power cord is included only with 115V versions of the subwoofers.) Plug the female end of the power cord into the Power Cord
Connector on the subwoofer’s rear panel and plug the male end into a grounded wall socket. Do NOT plug the subwoofer’s power
cord into a convenience outlet on any other audio or video component.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT PLUG THE POWER CORD INTO THE WALL OUTLET UNTIL ALL SYSTEM CONNECTIONS HAVE BEEN MADE AND VERIFIED.
NOTE: IF YOU NEED TO USE AN EXTENSION CORD, USE ONLY A HEAVY-DUTY (14-GAUGE OR LARGER) EXTENSION CORD TO AVOID
STARVING THE SUBWOOFER OF ALL THE CURRENT NECESSARY FOR FULL-POWER OPERATION.
Audio Connections
Your Sonance Cabinet Subwoofer has flexible connections that let you use it in a wide variety of audio system configurations. You can
connect the subwoofer’s Line Inputs to a surround processor or receiver’s line-level dedicated subwoofer output or a stereo
preamp/integrated amplifier’s left and right main outputs. The subwoofer’s Speaker Inputs can be connected to the speaker outputs
of a receiver or integrated amp that does not have left and right line-level outputs or a dedicated subwoofer output.
The subwoofer has a pair of Line Outputs that feed the signal to a main speaker power amplifier when the subwoofer is being fed by
a stereo preamp’s main outputs. The subwoofer’s Speaker Outputs feed a pair of main speakers when the subwoofer is being fed by
a receiver or power amp’s speaker outputs. The subwoofer’s Line Outputs and Speaker Outputs are both high-pass filtered at 100Hz,
6dB/octave. This high-pass filter is not defeatable.
To minimize noise interference on line-level cable runs longer than 20 feet we recommend converting the audio signal to balanced
configuration with the Sonance LS2 Balanced Line Sender at the source component, and back to unbalanced configuration with the
Sonance LR2 Balanced Line Receiver at the subwoofer.
When using the subwoofer’s Speaker Inputs and Speaker Outputs we recommend the following minimum speaker wire sizes:
• 14 gauge for a total wire length up to 30 feet
• 12 gauge for a total wire length from 30 feet to 75 feet
• 10 gauge for a total wire length longer than 75 feet
To determine the total wire length, add the lengths of wire between the amplifier and subwoofer and between the
subwoofer and the main speakers.

Connection Examples
Follow the connection example that best describes your audio system. The examples are listed in descending order of preference, with
the most ideal method presented first. If you can connect the subwoofer to your system using more than one of the
following methods, use the one that is applicable.
IMPORTANT: DONOT CONNECT THE SUBWOOFER’SLINE INPUTS AND SPEAKER INPUTS AT THE SAME TIME UNDER ANY CONDITIONS.
1. Surround sound processor, surround sound receiver, or stereo preamp with a dedicated Subwoofer Output (see Figure 7):
Connect the processor’s dedicated Subwoofer Output to one of the subwoofer’s LINE INPUT jacks (you can use either jack). If you
are installing two subwoofers in the system, use a ‘Y’ connector to connect both subwoofers to the processor’s Subwoofer Output.
2. Stereo preamp/power amp combination or an integrated amplifier with Pre Out and Main In jacks (see Figure 8):
Connect the preamp/integrated amplifier’s left and right Main Outputs to the both of the subwoofer’s LINE INPUT jacks. Use another set
of cables to connect the subwoofer’s Line Output jacks to the power amplifier/integrated amplifier’s left and right Main Inputs.
If you are installing two subwoofers, connect the preamp/integrated amplifier’s left Main Output to the left LINE INPUT jack of the
first subwoofer, and connect that subwoofer’s right LINE OUTPUT jack to the power amp/integrated amplifier’s left Main Input.
Connect the preamp/integrated amplifier’s right Main Output to the right LINE INPUT jack of the second subwoofer and connect that
subwoofer’s right LINE OUTPUT jack to the power amplifier/integrated amplifier’s right Main Input.

3. Integrated amplifier with left and right line-level outputs but no Main In or Amp In jacks (see Figure 9):
Use a stereo audio cable to connect the integrated amplifier’s left and right Line Outputs to the subwoofer’s left and right LINE INPUT
jacks. If you are installing two subwoofers in the system, connect the integrated amp’s left Line Output to the first
subwoofer’s left LINE INPUT jack and connect the integrated amp’s right Line Output to the second subwoofer’s right LINE INPUT jack.
4. Receiver or integrated amplifier with no line-level outputs (see Figure 10):
Use speaker wire to connect the receiver/ integrated amplifier’s left and right speaker outputs to the subwoofer’s left and right
SPEAKER INPUTS. Use additional lengths of speaker wire to connect the subwoofer’s left and right SPEAKER OUTPUTS to the left and right
main speakers.
If you are installing two subwoofers in the system, use a length of speaker wire to connect the receiver/ integrated amplifier’s left
Speaker Output to the left SPEAKER INPUT of one subwoofer, and use another length of speaker wire to connect that subwoofer’s
right SPEAKER OUTPUT to the left main speaker. Use another length of speaker wire to connect the receiver/integrated amplifier’s
right Speaker Output to the right SPEAKER INPUT of the other subwoofer and another length of speaker wire to connect that
subwoofer’s right SPEAKER OUTPUT to the right main speaker.

Subwoofer Adjustments (see Figure 11)
Bypass Switch
The BYPASS switch bypasses the subwoofer’s internal crossover network (XOVER
control) and the subwoofer’s LEVEL control.
If you have connected the subwoofer to a surround processor’s dedicated
Subwoofer Output (Connection Example #1, on page 6), set the BYPASS switch
to the ON position. All of the system’s subwoofer crossover and
volume functions will be handled by the surround processor’s internal
subwoofer crossover. Refer to your surround processor’s documentation for
information about adjusting your subwoofer’s volume.
If you have connected your subwoofer to your preamplifier’s Line Outputs or
using the subwoofer’s SPEAKER INPUTS, set the BYPASS switch to the OFF
position. The subwoofer’s XOVER and LEVEL controls will function (see below).
Xover (Crossover) Control
The XOVER control adjusts the subwoofer’s internal crossover between 50Hz and 250Hz. The crossover’s slope is 18dB/octave.
The higher you set the XOVER control, the higher in frequency the subwoofer will operate.
Use the XOVER control to achieve a smooth transition of bass frequencies between the subwoofer and your main speakers.
Generally, the XOVER control should be set at a lower frequency if your main speakers have larger woofers, and at a higher frequency
if your main speakers have smaller woofers.
When setting the XOVER control by ear, listen for the smoothness of the bass. If the bass seems too strong at certain
frequencies (especially if your main speakers have larger woofers), try a lower XOVER control setting. If the bass seems too weak at
certain frequencies (especially if your main speakers have smaller woofers), try a higher XOVER control setting.
Ideally, the XOVER control should be set to the frequency where your main speakers’ low-frequency response roll-off is –3dB. However,
this is usually impossible to determine without sophisticated test equipment since each listening room has a different influence on your
main speakers’ bass performance.
NOTE: THE XOVER CONTROL DOES NOT FUNCTION WHEN THE BYPASS SWITCH IS IN THE ON POSITION.
Phase Switch
When the subwoofer’s PHASE switch is in the 0 position, a positive input voltage will cause the woofer cone to move out (towards the
room). When the PHASE switch is in the 180 position, a positive input voltage will cause the woofer cone to move in (away from the
room).
There is no absolute correct setting for the PHASE switch. Depending on the location of the subwoofer relative to your main
speakers and seating location, one of the settings will produce a better match with the main speakers, improving bass impact, and in
some cases, improving overall bass level as well.
To determine the correct setting of the PHASE switch, listen to music with significant impactful bass content with the switch in
each position (it may be helpful to sit in the normal listening position while someone else changes the PHASE switch between
0 and 180). Leave the switch in the position that produces audibly louder bass with more impact.
NOTE: THE PHASE SWITCH WILL FUNCTION NO MATTER WHAT POSITION THE BYPASS SWITCH IS SET IN.
Level Control
The LEVEL control sets the subwoofer’s volume. When setting the subwoofer’s LEVEL control by ear, try to find a volume
setting where the bass sounds balanced on both music and films. Listen to several different music recordings and film soundtracks that
contain strong bass passages and try to find a setting for the LEVEL control that doesn’t over-emphasize the bass or make it sound weak.
The most accurate way to set the LEVEL control is with calibrated test noise or test tones and a sound-pressure level (SPL) meter or real-
time analyzer. There are several CDs and DVDs that contain subwoofer test signals. If you use an SPL meter, set the
subwoofer’s LEVEL control so that it plays at the same volume as the system’s other speakers.
NOTE: THE LEVEL CONTROL DOES NOT FUNCTION WHEN THE BYPASS SWITCH IS IN THE ON POSITION.

Auto-On
The subwoofer is in the STANDBY mode whenever its power cord is plugged-into a live AC outlet. When the subwoofer detects an audio
signal at either the LINE or SPEAKER INPUT it will automatically turn ON (the rear-panel On/Standby Indicator will illuminate Green). The
subwoofer will continue to remain ON for approximately 30 minutes after no signal is detected at either input, then it will return to
STANDBY (the rear-panel On/Standby Indicator will illuminate Red).
Grille Pull Strap
Your subwoofer’s flush-mount grille has a pull strap that makes it easy to remove the grille to perform adjustments. Once your
subwoofer been installed and you have finalized all of the adjustments, you can tuck the grille pull strap behind the grille before
putting the grille back on the subwoofer for a neater appearance. You can still remove the grille by using a dull knife or similar tool
to gently pry the grille away from the subwoofer.
