Please check promptly for any transit damage. Carefully unpack your new speaker system and verify the components against the packing list. In extreme circum stances, items may have become damaged in transit. If any damage is discovered, notify the delivery service and dealer where the system was purchased. Make a request for inspection, and follow their instructions for evaluation. Be sure to keep the products original shipping carton. POSITIONING YOUR REFERENCE SERIES SUBWOOFERKlipsch powered subwoofers are designed to reproduce deep bass and deliver the impact that makes your movies and music come alive. Typically optimum performance will result if youplace your subwoofer in a corner of the room on the same wall as your front channel speakers (Refer to Figures 1 and 2). Please note that room placement can have a dramatic effect upon the performance of your powered subwoofer. Corner placement, as suggested above, will increase the amount of bass output, while placing the subwoofer along the middle of a wall, or out in the room will decrease the amount of bass output. Experiment with a number of different placement options and control settings to find the one that best suits your particular room and taste. When choosing your subwoofers location, keep in mind that you will need to connect the subwoofers built in amplifier to an ACpower outlet. CONNECTIONS AND CONTROLSCAUTION: Turn off your amplifier and your subwoofer before making any connections. Do not connect both High Level and Line Level inputs at the same time as damage to your equipment could result! LINE IN – This input is designed as the standard or default input for the subwoofer. It accepts signals from the Left and Right channel pre amp, subwoofer or LFE outputs of your electronics via the RCA jack inputs. Connect to the RIGHT and or LEFT/LFE inputs on the subwoofers rear panel (Refer to RPW 10 SUBWOOFER English
Page 2
Figure 3). Use a high quality, shielded cable for best results. This can be in place of the conventional speaker wire connections (HIGH LEVEL IN). HIGH LEVEL HIGH LEVEL OUT – Connect your Left and Right channel speakers to these terminals instead of those on your amplifier if it is more convenient than connecting them directly to your amplifier. These outputs pass through a full range (unfiltered) signal. This requires that the subwoofer is connected to your amplifier with the HIGH LEVEL IN, speaker level terminals (Refer to Figure 4). LOW PASS (LP) CROSSOVER – The crossover allows the user to select the upper frequency cutoff of the subwoofer. The frequency is selectable from 40 120Hz. Frequencies above the controls setting are filtered out, allowing you to blend the subwoofers output with that of your main speakers. If the low pass filter function is being provided by your speakers electronics, set the LOW PASS control to 120Hz. GAIN – This control serves as a volume control for the subwoofer. It is used to match the output level of the subwoofer to your main speakers. The volume control on your systemsmain amplifier or pre amplifier will be the overall volume control for your subwoofer and full range speakers. PHASE 0/180 – This control is used to acoustically match the subwoofers output to your main speakers. Select the position, either 0˚ or 180˚, in which your subwoofer has more output atthe listening position. POWER ON/OFF – This is the main A/C power switch for the subwoofer. This switch must be in the ON position for the subwoofer to operate and for the AUTO/ON switch to function. Set this switch to the OFF position if the subwoofer will not be used for an extended period of time (i.e. vacation). AUTO/ON – When this switch is in the AUTO position, the subwoofer will automatically turn on when it senses a signal.It will automatically turn off after 20 minutes with no signal. When this switch is in the ON position, the subwoofer will remain on as long as the POWER ON/OFF switch is in the ON position. Power LED indicator – Located on the rear amplifier panel, this LED indicates the operating status of the built in amplifier. The LED will light red when the amplifier is in standby mode and green when the amplifier is on and receiving a signal.
