- Page 2 Thank you for choosing Bassface. From the simplest connector to our top of the range amplifier - every element of these products has been designed to give you the best possible performance for your money. Please take the time to read these instructions carefully as they contain useful and important information.
- Page 3 Before tackling the installation of the speaker, it is CRITICALLY important to follow at least a basic break in procedure for the speaker. This operation will loosen up the moving components of the speaker which will prepare it for heavy use. Failure to run a proper break in can be responsible for failures such as ripped spiders, surrounds or tinsel leads.
- Page 4 run the speaker for, say, an hour, recheck by switching everything off and pressing the cone. You will feel that it is much softer. You should then run for another hour to complete the initial break in. From here many more experienced people will wish to adopt their own preferred break in procedure which is of course fine.
- Page 5 The first consideration is enclosure design. This is a complicated and technical subject. You can use our recommended box design where we quote one, or approach your distributor for advice. Please do not guess the box size as it is a very important part of your success with the product.
- Page 6 moving the optimum amount of air. Do note well that should you decide to operate stereo bass you MUST run the woofers in separate air chambers. Additionally, if you are running a complex setup of multiple amplifiers driving multiple coils or speakers you MUST meter the amplifiers at various levels to ensure the voltages at the coils are equal.
- Page 7 Every subwoofer installation needs a crossover function - the precise settings are a subject of discussion for each particular setup but a good starting point is to work with a 25Hz subsonic filter and a 100Hz low pass filter. Whilst these will not produce optimum results in every case they will certainly be enough to get you up and running.
- Page 8 Once the speaker is installed and working it is vitally important to follow a break in procedure. On the Indy S woofers we recommend 20 hours of free air playing with a 20Hz tone as the best possible start. At the start of the break in you should ensure that the speaker is moving to - but not beyond - its maximum excursion.
