Niles SW10 Installation Manual page 6

ADJUSTABLE LOW-PASS, AND PHASE CONTROLS
A variable low-pass filter enables you to adjust the upper range of frequency that the subwoofer
reproduces anywhere between 60 Hz to 125 Hz. A switchable (0-or-180 degree) phase control
ensures optimal system integration, no matter where the SW10 or SW12 are placed in the room.
MUSIC SENSE CIRCUITRY AND TRIGGER INPUT FOR
AUTOMATIC POWER ON/OFF
When activated, the SW10 and SW12's music sense circuits will continually monitor the audio
inputs and automatically power on the subwoofer when audio signals are detected. Conversely, the
music sense circuits will automatically power off the subwoofer, after a preset time, when signals
are no longer present. The SW10 and SW12 also includes a POWER TRIGGER input that allows a
3-30V AC/DC input to remotely power on/off the SW10 or SW12 in the same way. This trigger has a
cascade output to automate other appropriately equipped gear or another SW10 or SW12.
CASCADE AUDIO OUTPUTS FACILITATE EASY
CONNECTION OF ADDITIONAL SUBWOOFERS
For larger rooms, or dual subwoofer applications, several SW10 and SW12's can be easily added to
a system using the cascading line-level or speaker level audio outputs to feed additional SW10 and
SW12 audio inputs in a daisy-chain connection.
ADJUSTABLE ISOLATING FEET
The SW10 and SW12 are equipped with four adjustable spike feet (pre-installed with large slip-on
rubber covers) that mechanically couple the woofer cabinet to a hard floor. For carpet placement,
the rubber covers can be removed to reveal the spikes.
DOLBY DIGITAL READY
®
The SW10 and SW12 are specifically designed for Home Theater Sound. These models exceed
the specifications set forth by Dolby Laboratories for the accurate reproduction of Dolby Digital-
Encoded Sources.
