Control Settings for AV Receiver & Processor
If using your PB-1000 Pro subwoofer with an AV Receiver or preamp with bass management, it is
recommended to leave all control settings in the default position, aside from the volume, which
allows you to adjust the level of output based on your personal preferences.
NOTE: Always re-run AV Receiver auto-set-up after moving the subwoofer to a different location to
ensure the acoustic distance and calibration levels are set correctly.
NOTE: If you want to run the subwoofer louder than the initial auto-set-up level, adjust the subwoofer
channel level upward in the AV receiver menu until you get the experience and performance you want.
An increase of 2-4 dB louder than initial set-up level is common for many customers. Volume can be
controlled from your mobile device via the Free SVS App or using the buttons on the rear panel
interface.
Please consult the Advanced Subwoofer Controls section of this owner's manual or contact our
SVS Sound Experts if you have questions about any of the control settings.

Control Settings for Stereo Receiver or Pre-Amplifier
Most Stereo Receivers and Pre-Amplifiers do not have bass management. Instead you will use
the Left and Right full-range outputs and make adjustments through the DSP amplifier on the
subwoofer.
Be sure to connect both Left and Right outputs to the Left and Right inputs on the subwoofer.
Set the Low Pass Filter to "On" and adjust the Crossover Frequency and Slope to achieve a
smooth blend and transition with the main speakers.
Once blended, adjust the Subwoofer volume to match the volume level of your main speakers.
For finer tuning, the SVS Subwoofer Matching Tool on our website provides the recommended
low pass filter frequency and slope setting for most loudspeakers on the market. Just choose
your brand and model of speakers from the menus and Merlin does the rest. It's available 24/7,
365 at https://www.svsound.com/pages/merlin. Our SVS Sound Experts are also standing by
to help with any connection or control questions you have about any of the controls or settings.
NOTE: Volume and low pass filter can be controlled from your mobile device via the Free SVS App, or
using the buttons on the rear panel interface.
