Page 7: Before You Begin
Before You Begin • Verify the power switch is in the OFF position before making any connections; when making connections, make them securely. Failure to do so may result in noise, poor performance, or damage to connected equipment. • Bundling power cords with subwoofer or speaker cables may produce un- wanted hum in your system. - Page 8 • Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. • Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong.

Page 9: Power Connection
• Due to the weight of our SUB10 and SUB12 subwoofers, we recommend hav- ing two people perform any unboxing, moving, or positioning of the unit to avoid injury or damage to your floor or the subwoofer. • Do not connect the power cord to your subwoofer until all other connections are made. -
Page 10: Audio Connection: Lfe, Line Output, Speaker Wire
Before plugging in your power cord, verify the voltage switch is set at 115V for US operation, or 230V for most other countries. Plug the female-terminated end of the power cord into the Power Cord Connector marked “AC INPUT,” located on the subwoofer’s rear panel. Then, plug the male end into a grounded wall socket. - Page 11 or other component lacking a subwoofer or LFE output, you can use the Left and Right Variable Line Outputs, if available. (Note: Using a Fixed line output is not recommended, since your subwoofer will stay at a “fixed” volume level regardless of your system’s main volume setting).

Alternate High-Level Wiring Options If your front speakers have already been installed into the wall and/or your receiv- er or amplifying component has two pairs of main, front-channel speaker termi- nals, wire one pair of terminals to the subwoofer and the other pair to your main speakers;... -
Page 13: Subwoofer Controls: Level, Crossover, Phase Switch
Subwoofer Level Control Underneath your subwoofer’s cloth grille are two round knobs and one toggle switch. The first knob, labeled “LEVEL”, adjusts the subwoofer’s volume. If the com- ponent sending signal to your subwoofer has its own bass management features, this knob can be set somewhere in the middle of its range so that the subwoofer’s output level is controlled by your surround receiver, amplifier, or processor. - Page 14 subwoofer by ear, listening for the smoothest bass that is devoid of any significant peaks or valleys in its overall response—i.e., without too much or too little bass at certain frequencies. Note: This control is bypassed when using the LFE input on your subwoofer. Subwoofer Phase Switch The switch in between the knobs, labeled PHASE, adjusts the phase of the sub- woofer’s output waveform in relation to your main speakers.

0 (up) position. Subwoofer Placement Though your Origin Acoustics subwoofer will provide high-quality, high-impact bass from a wide variety of locations, its placement in the room can greatly af- fect its performance. -
Page 16: Cleaning & Care
Proximity Placement to a Wall or Corner If space allows, try experimenting with boundary loading your subwoofer: It can significantly increase bass impact, lower cone excursion, and power demands. Placing it near a wall increases bass output; placing it in a corner maximizes out- put;... -
Page 17: Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting If possible, it’s often good to try to isolate the problem first. For example, if you’re playing a DVD on a television and there’s no sound, try connecting an MP3 player to the system to see if that works. If it does work, then the problem is with the tele- vision, DVD player, or the cables connecting them. -
