Installation Your new subwoofer system provides for a number of installation options. Read all the installation information below in order to determine which installation option is best for your system. Remember to perform all installation procedures with system power turned off.
Phase adjustment- 0˚ to 180˚ This control allows you to "delay" the phase of the subwoofer's output signal up to 180˚ to correct for any possible mismatch & resulting cancellation between the subwoofer and your main speakers/amplifier.
By utilizing this method, you will have a bi-amplified system, gaining improved power and headroom for your system. 5 ☞ Figure 1: Installation using line-level (line in) inputs MAIN OUTPUTS RIGHT LE.
To bypass the subwoofer's internal crossover when the unit is being fed a low pass signal from another crossover, simply locate the switch marked X-over, OUT - IN on the rear panel of the subwoofer and set to the OUT position. This will eliminate the internal crossover from the signal path.
Interconnect cables When installing your new Velodyne subwoofer using the line level connections, you should always use shielded phono cables. There are many decent cables available today, most any of which will work perfectly well. We do recommend that you keep the length of cable as short as possible to avoid any potential noise problems.
Placement True subwoofers operate at extremely low frequencies which are primarily omni-directional. While it is recommended that the subwoofer be placed on the same plane as the satellite speakers, room and system conditions often dictate otherwise.
Troubleshooting and Service Before seeking service for your subwoofer, please re-check all settings. Following is a simple troubleshooting guide to assist you. 1. Verify unit is plugged in and power outlet used is active and supplying proper voltage? 2.
