Design and Features
Your new Sonance Cabinet Subwoofer delivers powerful, low-

• Made for Music and Movies

Subwoofer Placement
Since your ears do not hear directional sound at deep bass
frequencies, your subwoofer’s placement is not as critical to its
overall performance as is the placement of your system’s other
speakers. The following guidelines — plus some experimentation
- will help you get the best performance possible from your
subwoofer in your listening environment. We suggest starting with
the subwoofer in line with your left and right speakers, somewhere
between either speaker and the side wall (see Figure 1).
Installing the Subwoofer Flush to a Wall
or Cabinet
To allow for proper ventilation when installing the cabinet 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.
Yoursubwoofer’slocationrelativetowallswillinuencetheamount
of bass it produces. Placing the subwoofer next to a wall will
increase bass output; placing 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dierentlisteninglocations.Experimentwith
dierentsubwooferlocationsuntilyound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: SONANCE 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 OR SECURE THE ITEMS.

Power Connection
Your MS10SUB Cabinet Subwoofer features a removable IEC
power connector for 115V (see Figure 2). 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. Power Consumption
Standby Mode 0.46W after 30 minutes without signal.
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 most accurate way to set the volume control is with calibrated

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 volume control so that it plays at the same volume as

Crossover Adjustments
The crossover control adjusts the subwoofer’s internal crossover
frequency between 50Hz and 250Hz. The crossover’s slope is
18dB/octave. The higher you set the crossover control, the higher
in frequency the subwoofer will operate. Use the crossover control
to achieve a smooth transition of bass frequencies between the
subwoofer and your main speakers. Generally, the crossover
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 (see Figure 6).
When setting the crossover 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 crossover control setting. If the bass seems too weak at
certain frequencies (especially if your main speakers have smaller
woofers), try a higher crossover control setting.
Ideally, the crossover control should be set to the frequency where
yourmainspeakerslow-frequencyresponserollois-3dBdown.
Phase Adjustments
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
(see Figure 6).
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signicant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.
Ground Lift
Your Sonance Cabinet Subwoofer features a ground lift switch
available to eliminate most ground hum issues. To reduce the
ground current and induced noises, switch the ground lift from
isolatedtogrounded.Safetyisnotaected(seeFigure7).
Replacing the AC Fuse
Yoursubwooferisfactory-equippedwiththefollowingACfuse:
T4 AL / 250 VAC
To replace the fuse, unplug the power cord from the Power Cord
Connector and use a screwdriver to remove the fuse holder
(see Figure 7).
