subwoofer’s rear amplifier panel.

- Determine optimum subwoofer placement location
- Determine system configuration (e.g. music or surround sound system type for proper
equipment settings & calibration)
NOTE: Remember to make all equipment connections with system power disconnected to reduce
the risk of personal shock or damage to equipment. Consult your dealer or [e-mail] for optional
accessories that may be required to properly complete your system installation.
