USER MANUAL: SLIM BASS 8 1 Drop the bass! SLIM BASS 8 is a compact, active subwoofer from Wharfedal\ e. Featuring a custom engineered, 200mm (8) long throw driver and high-power built-in amplifier, capable of 400W peak power output, SLIM BASS 8 is set to deliver a new dimension to your home cinema experience with astounding bass impact, without breaking the bank. Designed to be placed in tight spaces, under your sofa for instance, or \ against a side wall in an apartment or bedroom, this technologically advanced subwoofer has a depth of a mere 30cm, so you can find the space for it to spur your home cinema experience. Limited space, but unlimited bass! This subwoofer is set to operate for the mains voltage marked on the amplifier panel. Before connecting check that this voltage is correct for your mains supply. If you move to an area with a different mains supply voltage, please consult your Wharfedale dealer to arrange the conversion of this product. SLIM BASS 8 is designed for placement in tight spaces. For instance, clo\ se to your chair or sofa (or underneath if space allows). The unit may be placed almost anywhere in the room, we also recommend that it be placed in front of the listener and as central to the listening position as possible. Th\ ere should be a mains outlet within easy reach. We suggest you initially position the subwoofer about 20cm (8 inches) from the wall. Placing the unit close to the wall will enhance the bass; placing it across the corner of the room wil\ l increase the bass further, possibly at the expense of be sound with no loose floorboards, etc. Experiment with locations and sources before making a final decision. Note: due to the positioning of the heat-sink, it is important to that cooling air can flow around the subwoofer. Please keep adequate space between the heat-sink and surrounding materials such as carpet and fabrics etc. The diagram shows the Dolby Labs recommended positions for multi-channel operation. For 5.1 channel operation use the satellites in the front and surround positions with the Subwoofer in the LFE position. If you have a 7.1 channel processor/amplifier you can enhance the system further by buying one of the larger loudspeakers from the Wharfedale range to use as front channel speakers and use the satellite units as back channels. If you have any queries, your Wharfedale dealer will be pleased to advise you. INTRODUCTION INSTALLATION Unpacking Carefully unpack the subwoofer. Retain all the packing materials so that your subwoofer can be repacked \ and shipped without damage. If you dispose of the packing, do so with regard to all recycling provis\ ions in your area.
