Klipsch R-120SWI Manual page 4

SUBWOOFER
CAUTION: Ensure that the subwoofer is unplugged from the AC wall outlet before
making any connections. In the absence of a subwoofer output on your receiver (if
provided) to the Left/LFE and right input on the suwoofer.
1) POWER LED: Located on the front baffle, this LED indicates the operating status of
the built-in amplifier. The LED will light green when the amplifier is on and receiving a
signal. If the LED is dark and not lit, the amplifier is off. For more information on the
controls mentioned in this manual and on bass management, see your dealer or visit

2) POWER SWITCH: When this switch is in the "ON/AUTO" position, the subwoofer will
automatically turn "on" when it senses a signal. It will automatically go into "standby
mode" after 15-20 minutes with no signal. When this switch is in the "OFF" position, the
subwoofer will remain "off" until the switch is manually turned back to the "ON/AUTO"
position.
3) GAIN: If your subwoofer is connected to a Subwoofer Output of a surround receiver,
first set the subwoofer volume level control in the receiver to the "half way" or "0 dB"
position. Then increase the volume (or gain) of the subwoofer up until the subwoofer's
volume level matches the output of your main speakers. After this setup is completed,
the volume control on your system's main amplifier or pre-amplifier will be the volume
control for both your subwoofer and speakers together. If your subwoofer is connected
to the L/R Pre-Amp Outputs of a receiver there will be no subwoofer volume in that
receiver to set before setting the subwoofer's gain control.
4) "LOWPASS" CONTROL: The crossover point chosen determines where low
bass frequencies are "handed off" from the speakers to the subwoofer. If setting
the crossover point in the receiver, turn the Lowpass Filter knob on the subwoofer
to the farthest point right (160Hz). Set the crossover point based on the size of
the main left/right speakers you are using in the system. As a general rule, for
larger, floorstanding speakers, set the crossover point between 50Hz-90Hz. If
using small bookshelf or "satellite" speakers for the mains, set the crossover point
between 90Hz-150Hz. The smaller the speaker, the higher the setting until the bass
frequencies blend well between the speakers and your subwoofer once your system
is completely hooked up. If your receiver does not have a crossover point setting, set
the Lowpass Filter on the subwoofer instead within the same recommended settings
(see receiver manual for additional speaker setup info).
5) "PHASE" 0/180: This control is used to acoustically match the subwoofer's output
to your main speakers. Select the position either 0˚ or 180˚ in which your subwoofer
has more output at the listening position.
