Connect the supplied microphone for the Auto-EQ feature to this mini-jack.

(4) Remote Eye

This is the eye that receives infrared commands from the supplied remote.

(5) Low-Pass Crossover

Use these up and down buttons to select the high-frequency range at which you wish to cut

off the signal to the subwoofer. The frequency is indicated on the LED display briefly, then

the display reverts to showing the subwoofer’s volume. The slope is fixed at 24 dB/octave.

To deactivate the crossover, press BOTH the up and down crossover buttons at the same

time – two dashes on the display indicate the crossover is deactivated and the woofer

plays all frequencies presented to it. Please see page 9 for a more detailed discussion

on crossovers.

This LED supplies information on volume, crossover, woofer type, and other information. The

light button on the remote deactivates this display. Upon startup, the display shows the

model of subwoofer the SC-1250 is controlling, then reverts to the volume indicator.

(7) Volume Control

These buttons allow you to balance the output from the subwoofer to the main speakers in

your system. The volume should be set to achieve similar volume level from between both

the main speakers and subwoofer.The default volume is 30.

Note: Volume is also controllable by using the supplied remote.

These detachable ears allow the SC-1250 to be rack mounted.
