Unpacking & Installation

Lift out the subwoofer unit from the packaging, care must be taken not to depress

the drive unit cones as this could result in permanent damage. Fix the four feet to

the underside with the screws provided. The subwoofer unit should be positioned

in the most suitable position, preferably not in the corner of a room as this may

cause a pronounced boom. It is important to position the subwoofer initially to have

easy access to the control panel.

After you have chosen your desired connection method it is important to note that

all your cables will reach easily. Leave the subwoofer unplugged until the

installation and initial set-up procedure is complete.

The optimal control settings will depend entirely on your system configuration.

For initial trials set the controls as follows:

Gain should be set to the minimum position.

Frequency should be set to approximately 60 Hz, if you have large main speakers.

If you have small main speakers or satellites, this should be set to

approximately 100Hz.

Phase should be set to initial 0 degrees.

Mode If you prefer an audio quality performance the mode switch should be

left in audio. If you are installing a predominately home cinema

system it may be more effective to set mode switch to video position.

Note: This Subwoofer unit is fitted with a switchable voltage selector, which

should be factory set. If you are in any doubt as to your mains supply voltage spec-

ification you must consult the dealer from where you purchased the product. Under

no circumstances should the voltage selector be altered.

See: Mains voltage chart under specifications on page 16.

Note: If the Subwoofer is not likely to be used for long periods, it is wise to switch

off at the mains. This is a recommended safe practice in order to reduce the risk of

electrical fire.

3Note Warnings

All warnings on the appliance should be adhered to.

4Follow the Instructions

All operating instructions should be followed

The appliance should not be used near water - for example, bathtub, wash

bowl, kitchen sink, washing machine, in a wet basement or near a swimming

pool. Under no circumstance should plants or fish bowls be placed on the

appliance.

6Positioning

The appliance has been designed for floor mounting only.

7Ventilation

The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not

interfere with its own proper ventilation. For example, the appliance should

not be situated on a sofa, bed, rug or similar surface that may impair any

ventilation openings. It should not be placed in any purpose built location

without suitable ventilation being provided.

8Heat

The appliance should not be placed near any heat source such as radiators,

open fires, stoves, direct sunlight and any other appliance that produces heat.

9Power Sources

The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of the type

described in the operating instructions or as marked on the product.

10 Power Cord Protection

Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be stepped

on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular

attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles and the point where the

cable exits the appliance.

11 Non Use Periods

The power cord of the appliance should be unplugged from the mains outlet

when left unused for a long period of time.

12 Cleaning

While cleaning is in progress the AC mains power lead should be unplugged

from the AC supply. The appliance can be cleaned with a soft dry cloth.

Care should be taken to ensure that no liquid is spilt on the appliance,

especially near the rear panel where the power cord enters the appliance.

14 Damage Requiring Service

Qualified personnel should service the appliance when:

bLiquid has been spilt on to the rear panel of the appliance.

cThe appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked

change in its performance.

dThe appliance has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.

15 Servicing

The user should not attempt to service the appliance beyond that specified in

the operating instructions. Qualified service personnel should carry out all

other servicing requirement.

Mains Connection

Important

Check the voltage setting. Do not connect the appliance to an incorrect power

supply, as serious damage may occur. Do not connect the power supply until all

other connections have been made.

Position/Location

Your Monitor Audio Subwoofer should perform well in just about any room location.

In fact unless your ear is within a couple of feet of the subwoofer, the bass should

seem to radiate from your main speakers.

Your Monitor Audio Subwoofer is not magnetically shielded and therefore should

not be located too close to your television set, leave a distance of at least 2-3 feet.

Failure to do so will result in your television set’s tube becoming magnetised and

this will cause a distortion of the picture, together with a change of colour. Should

this occur, consult your Television service agent for advice.

No matter where you place your subwoofer, you must allow sufficient spacing for

ventilation of the rear panel. The rear panel has a heat sink mounted onto it and will

therefore generate heat, when in use.

Do Not

aPlace your subwoofer directly against a wall, leave at least a minimum of 15cm

(6 inches) and preferably 30cm (12 inches).

bPlace against a radiator, panel heater or forced air heating outlet

cPlace outdoors or in a humid environment

dPlug into an AC mains outlet until all your system wiring is completed.
