    Power Requirements The ‘Watts’ (W) rating indicated on the rear panel of your GoldenEar Technology ForceField subwoofer is the maximum a/c power the subwoofer will draw when producing its maximum power output. However, the actual wattage draw will vary with the bass content of the program material and is typically MUCH less (below 100 watts in normal audio playback use).
  • Page 22 Advantage of using two Subwoofers Although a single GoldenEar Technology ForceField subwoofer provides exceptional performance and substantial output, the quality and quantity of bass can be further improved with the use of two (or even four) subwoofers.
  • Page 23 The preceding is only a guideline. You may want to use a bass test disc and SPL meter to more accurately determine the bass characteristics of your listening room (see dealer for more information). Remember that room acoustics vary, so it may take some experimenting with placement to achieve best performance. ► GoldenEar Technology ForceField Manual...

    Wireless Connector – Allows connection of the optional wireless kit (See Wireless Kit Owner’s Manual for setup and connection instructions). COntROL FACILItIES Your GoldenEar Technology ForceField subwoofer is equipped with operating controls on the back panel to ensure excellent flexibility and maximum performance in any installation. Most of them are the “set and forget” type, although you may occasionally find certain controls require minor adjustments. Subwoofer Level – This is a volume control, use it to balance the subwoofer output level to best blend with your other speakers.

    (low-pass filter). If the sub output on your receiver is full range (does not have a low-pass crossover - or you wish to use the ForceField subwoofer’s low-pass crossover), then you must hook up using the Speaker-Level Inputs and Outputs. ► GoldenEar Technology ForceField Manual...
  • Page 26 ForceField Owner’s Manual High-Level (Speaker Wire) Input From L/R Main Speaker terminals of Receiver or Amplifier – When your GoldenEar Technology ForceField subwoofer is hooked up via high level connections, you have the option of running your main speakers “full range” or rolling off the low end by using the high-pass filter built into the subwoofer. To hook up your ForceField subwoofer via the high-level connections simply run speaker cable from the right channel high-level input connector on the subwoofer to the right channel speaker connector of your receiver or amplifier, repeating this process for the left channel. (See figure below). Using appropriate quality...
  • Page 27 When using High-Level (speaker wire) connection, the subwoofer level will be set by the subwoofer’s level control, not the bass management system of you’re a/v receiver or processor. (*Small and Large settings on speaker setup menus determine the routing of bass information, see your dealer for more assistance on the correct settings for your specific speaker system and environment.) ► GoldenEar Technology ForceField Manual...
  • Page 28 Bass should be clearly audible, but not intrusive; Slowly rotate the Subwoofer Cut-Off Frequency control until you hear the best subwoofer/main speaker blend. If the sound is too “thin,” you have not set the frequency high enough; if the sound becomes “boomy” you have set the frequency too high. Adjust until you find the most natural balance. ► GoldenEar Technology ForceField Manual...
  • Page 29 Complete Home theater Systems We strongly suggest that you use a matching GoldenEar Technology Left, Right, Center channel and Rear/Surround speakers to complete your GoldenEar home theater system. Powering up the Subwoofer Your ForceField subwoofer contains a built-in, active powered subwoofer section as well as an electronic crossover.
