Subwoofer Setup; Setup - Aperion Audio Intimus 4T Owner's Manual

Setting the Aperion Audio Intimus S-8 Subwoofer
In addition to the low-level inputs and outputs on the rear of your subwoofer,
you will see two round knobs and two switches. The first knob, labeled
"subwoofer level" controls the subwoofer's volume. The second knob,
"crossover frequency" sets the crossover frequency. When using the S-8
with 422 satellite speakers, set the receiver crossover at 100Hz and the
subwoofer crossover between 100Hz-140Hz.
The power switch has two settings - on and off. When the switch is set in
the "on" setting, the power lamp will be illuminated green. When set to the
"off" position, the power lamp will turn off. The "phase" switch reverses
the subwoofer's polarity. If the distance from the sub to the listener is
significantly different than the front and center speakers (>3'), try using
the phase reverse switch to see if it improves the bass response.
The S-8 has a switchable voltage control. Please be sure to select 120V for
use in the USA.
The illustration to the right
shows a recommended
starting point for settings.
You will want to adjust these
based on personal preference
and room dynamics.
