Infinity Classia PSW310W Owner's Manual page 8

NOTE: This control will have no effect if the LFE Input £ is used
(wired connection) or if the Low-Pass Selector
(wireless connection). If you have a Dolby Digital or DTS processor/
receiver, the Low-Pass Frequency is set by the processor/receiver.
Consult your owner's manual to learn how to view or change this
setting.
ID Codes
In the unlikely event that you experience interference when operating
the system, or if you have more than one set of subwoofer transmitters
and receivers in operation, you may change the channel in which the
system operates. On the transmitter module and the subwoofer, there is
a four-position ID-Code Selector (
to one of the other positions. The transmitter and subwoofer (
and ). selectors must be set to the same position for the system to
‡
function correctly. You can also set up a maximum of two subwoofers
to be receiving from the same transmitter by setting the channel
selector on the transmitter and both of the subwoofers to the same
channel.
A Word About Wireless Products
The Infinity Classia PSW310W wireless subwoofer utilizes advanced
wireless transceivers operating in the 2.4GHz frequency band. This is
the same frequency band that is used for wireless home networks and
high-quality cordless phones. It also allows for the transmission of high-
performance, full-spectrum sound to remote locations, wirelessly.
Like all wireless devices, the Infinity PSW310W wireless subwoofer's
operating range may vary, depending upon variables such as building
construction methods and materials, atmospheric conditions and other
sources of interference. Please consult your Infinity dealer or distributor,
or visit www.infinitysystems.com, for further information or assistance.
Wall-Mounting the Transmitter Module
NOTE: The customer is responsible for the correct selection and use
of mounting hardware (available through hardware stores) that will
ensure the proper and safe wall-mounting of the transmitter.
Step 1.
Insert the two M3 x 4 machine screws through the wall bracket and into
the rear of the transmitter module, as shown in the figure below.
Step 2.
Attach the transmitter module with wall bracket to the wall, using
suitable hardware and, if necessary, wall anchors.

The optional Infinity R.A.B.O.S. is simple-to-use, yet sophisticated,
™
low- frequency calibration system. It is designed to work in conjunction
with the Infinity Classia PSW310W powered sub. The Classia subwoofer
contains a parametric equalizer that you will adjust as indicated by
the R.A.B.O.S. test results. By following these instructions, you will
™
optimize the subwoofer's response characteristics to complement
the sub's environment. This will dramatically improve the sound
of your system. You can experiment freely with the parametric
equalizer settings of the PSW310W, using your ears to determine
what settings to use. However, to get the best results, purchase the
optional R.A.B.O.S. Kit from your Infinity dealer. Follow the detailed
™
instructions that come with the Kit to optimize the sound in less than 30
minutes.
The Optional R.A.B.O.S. Kit Includes the
™
Following Components:
• Specialized Sound-Level Meter
• Test CD
• Instructions
• Measurement Templates
• Width Selector
"What R.A.B.O.S. Technology Does"
™
The Test CD provides specially designed signals you will use while
performing measurements. The sound-level meter provided is used
to "acquire" the information needed for adjustments. You will create
a response plot on the R.A.B.O.S.
™
Width Selector, you will then determine the appropriate equalizer
settings. After adjustment, the test sequence is repeated to confirm
your settings.
The R.A.B.O.S. Goal
™
It is a fact of audio that what we hear at low frequencies is determined
as much or more by the listening room as by the loudspeaker itself.
Placement of the loudspeakers and listeners, and the acoustical
characteristics of the room surfaces are all important determinants of
bass quantity and quality. In most practical situations, there is little that
can be done about this, except for patient trial-and-error repositioning
of the loud-speakers and listeners. Usually, the practical constraints of
a living space and the impracticality of massive acoustical treatment
mean that equalization is the only practical solution.
Professional sound engineers routinely employ sophisticated
measurement systems and equalizers to optimize speakers to the
installation. This has never been practical for the home audiophile.
This is why R.A.B.O.S. was created. It enables you to identify the
™
dominant low-frequency response characteristic of your room. Once
you know the problem, the R.A.B.O.S.
to optimize the low-frequency characteristics of the speakers to the
room they are in, exactly as the professional sound engineers do it.
