UNPACKING
Place the package on the floor or tabletop with the box flaps up. Cut the tape with a utility knife to open the package. Fold the carton flaps back and carefully slide the subwoofer and packaging from the box, or turn the box over with flaps open and remove the box. Stand the subwoofer and packing upright, making sure the subwoofer is right side up, and remove the packing material.

CONNECTION
Connect RCA connector from sub output on your amp/receiver to LINE input on the subwoofer.

CROSSOVER
If you are using the Bass Management crossover menu settings in your A/V receiver or processor, select the 150Hz setting on the subwoofer, if you are not using this function, set to 80Hz.
CROSSOVER 80 150
VOLUME CONTROL
This control affects the output of your subwoofer and should be set at the lowest level before turning the power on. Volume can be increased until the desired level is achieved. For 2-channel applications, you should adjust the volume to match the output of your speakers.

AC INPUT
Your subwoofer is supplied set to either 115 volts or 230 volts depending on the country it is shipped. This voltage can be changed by having a  technician change the fuse  (T3.15AL for 115 V and T1.5AL for 230V) and move the switch on your subwoofer amplifier to the desired voltage. Residents of some other countries will need to purchase an adapter or new proper power cord that fits your specific socket. 

TRIGGER
Use of the trigger is an optional hook-up. If your A/V receiver or A/V preamp/processor has a 12-volt trigger output, you can run a 3.5mm connector cable to the subwoofer trigger input and your subwoofer will power on and off with your A/V receiver or A/V preamp-processor. When the trigger is in the “off” mode the LED will turn off and the amplifier will be switched to a low power consumption standby mode.

TRIGGER

0-180 PHASE CONTROL
This synchronizes the in/out movement of the subwoofer driver with the other speakers in your system. Once you have chosen the best location for your subwoofer, try flipping the phase switch between 0-180 to see which setting produces deeper and smoother bass output. Leave the switch at the setting that results in the smoothest and deepest ass at several listening locations in the room. If you hear no difference, leave the switch at the 0 positions. Quite often this switch makes little difference, but it is dependent on your particular room dimensions and subwoofer location.

PHASE 0 180

POWER SWITCH

The POWER ON switch near the bottom of the panel supplies power to the sub amplifier. When this switch is in the ON position, the subwoofer will remain on, and the LED
an indicator will be illuminated.

ROOM POSITION
The placement of your subwoofer can add a significant difference to the performance of your home theater system. Low frequencies are omnidirectional, but best performance results if you place the subwoofer in the corner, as this will increase the level of bass output. You can experiment with different configurations, or even add multiple subwoofers
to your system (see diagram).

NOTE: When cleaning your subwoofer, avoid the use of abrasives,  solvents, or harsh detergents. Windsor subwoofers have a long-lastingvinyl finish that should only require using or cleaning with a dry cloth. Gently use the brush attachment of your vacuum cleaner to remove any dust or particles from the surfaces of your subwoofer.
