(Volume, Low-Pass filter (Hz), Phase and LF Extension). Using the Master/Slave feature of Dynaudio subwoofers this is easily achieved: The Master subwoofer (connected directly to the subwoofer Output of the amplifier or receiver) will control all Slave subwoofers (connected to the Master subwoofer). -
Page 11: Remote Control And Battery Connection
Provided your processor or receiver has a XLR symmetric or balanced Output for subwoofer you should consider using the XLR Input (No. 3 in fig. 2) on the Dynaudio subwoofer. In a setup with multiple subwoofers you can use the XLR connections between the Master and Slave subwoofers, even if the connection between the processor or receiver has been made using the RCA connectors. -

SETTING UP & TUNING IN Adjusting the settings and using the subwoofer Once you have ensured yourself that all necessary connections have been made, the subwoofer can be switched on and used. With the exception of the mains power switch (No. 2 in fig. 2) controlling the subwoofer is done through the DSC 1 remote control;... -
Page 13: Temporary Manual Mode For On/Standby
The right volume level is one of the critical aspects of correct and seamless integration of any subwoofer as part of a speaker system. Please refer to the chapter "Finding the correct settings" for more information. • Together with the other settings, the volume level can be stored in one of the 4 presets. -
Page 14: Setting Cross-Over Frequency
Selecting EXT On or Off EXT stands for Extension, in this case Low Frequency Extension. Dynaudio subwoofers allow for deep and accurate bass response even at high levels. In the EXT Off mode, the very deepest bass will be mildly filtered; this will allow the subwoofer to achieve even higher sound pressure levels. -
Page 15: Positioning The Subwoofer
Remember that the Dynaudio subwoofers allow for 4 different preset settings, so you can store a preset with the setting that matches the occasion (be it for action movie or music listening) best. - Page 16 POSITIONING THE SUBWOOFER Fig. 8 • Generally, avoid placing the subwoofer at ¼, ½ or ¾ of either the length or width of the room as at these locations the room-modes are likely to be strongest (the dashed lines in fig. 8) Fig.

Page 17: Finding Optimal Settings
FINDING THE OPTIMAL SETTINGS Multiple subwoofers. By using carefully positioned multiple subwoofers it is pos- sible to even out the different room-modes and thus create a more coherent overall bass response in the room. It is worth experimenting with different locations around the room for the additional subwoofers, even using the rear of the room. - Page 18 Output in the deeper bass range, in which case the cross- over frequency should be set to 60Hz. A small or very small speaker will have less deep bass Output in which case the setting should be 80Hz. or 100Hz. To find the correct setting in such scenarios: •...

Page 19: Phase
With the phase settings you can adjust the timing relationship between the subwoofers and main speakers. If either subwoofer or main speaker are slightly delayed in response in relation to the other, it can result in decreased bass Output in the frequency response area where they overlap each other.. -
