2.1.3 Power

IEC Power Connection: Your Temblor T8 accepts a standard IEC power cord.
Warning: Do not remove the center grounding prong or use a separate ground-lift
adapter, as this could result in electric shock.
Power Switch: This is the On/Off switch. The power status is indicated by the
illuminated logo on the front of the cabinet.
Power User Tip: Your Temblor T8 features a Standby mode. When no
signal is present for longer than ten minutes, your T8 will lower its power
consumption to less than 0.5W until signal is present again. The lighted logo
on the front of your T8 will turn white when Standby mode is active
AC Select Switch: The input-power voltage is set at the factory to correspond with
the country to which it was shipped. Use this switch only if you are using your
Temblor T8 in a country that uses a different standard voltage than is used in the
country where you purchased your T8.

2.1.4 User Controls

Polarity: The Polarity button reverses the polarity of the input signals.
Power User Tip: Once your have connected your T8 to your system, try experimenting
0
with each setting while listening to your favorite music. Leave this switch in the position
where the bass was the loudest.
High Pass Filter: Removes frequency content below 80 Hz from the full-range
signal sent from the T8 outputs. This is useful if your main studio monitors do not
have their own highpass filter.
Power User Tip: Leaving frequency content below 80 Hz in full-range monitors
can cancel out or reinforce the highest frequencies that are reproduced by
the Temblor T8. This can make the bass response of the overall system muddy
and ill-defined. By rolling off your full-range speakers, you will create a more
linear frequency response between the subwoofer and full-range content.
Low Pass Filter: This control determines the upper end of the frequency range
reproduced by the Temblor T8. If you have enabled the onboard highpass filter, set
the Low Pass Filter control to 80 Hz. Otherwise, set the Low Pass Filter control to the
lowest frequency that your main monitors can reliably reproduce.
