The driver’s basket is made from die-cast aluminum, which keeps all the critical moving parts in precise alignment. The PV1000’s bass unit is built in Boston’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Peabody, Massachusetts. Every one is tested as it comes off the line to be within ±1dB of the lab reference unit, an incredibly tight tolerance. - Page 6 Connecting the PV1000 to Digital 5.1 Channel Home Theater Systems NOTE: Power is always supplied to the subwoofer electronics unless it is unplugged. Make sure your subwoofer and receiver are unplugged when making the connections. Digital 5.1 home theater electronics dedicates one channel (the “.1” of 5.1) to reproduce the special low-frequency (LFE) information (such as explosions and thunder) contained in digitally- encoded soundtracks.
- Page 7 Y adapter and plug the dual end of the Y adapter into the left and right inputs of the PV1000. Connected in this way under these circumstances, the PV1000 will play approximately 6dB louder at the same volume knob setting. However, the maximum output is unchanged.
- Page 8 Setting the Crossover Control As a starting point, set the crossover control on the PV1000 about 10Hz higher than the lower limit of your main speakers’ bass response. Fine-tune the crossover setting by ear for the smoothest blend with your main speakers. The best setting of the crossover control will depend on speaker placement and personal preference.

Rear Panel Power off/on: Turns the PV1000 on and off. Because of its amplifier’s high efficiency, the PV1000 may be left in the on position all the time, even when not in use. Its power consumption is minimal. NOTE: Power is always supplied to the subwoofer electronics unless it is unplugged. - Page 10 Placement Place the subwoofer next to a wall or in a corner near your main speakers. Typically, the sound is best when the subwoofer is within 15 feet (5m) of the main speakers. However, the sharp 24dB/octave crossover roll-off permits placement farther from the main speakers if necessary. Since the ear is unable to localize the low frequencies of the subwoofer, the bass still appears to come from the main speakers.
