2-Channel Mode
WARNING! Turn the Master Power switch Off
and unplug it before making or breaking any
signal connections!
This setup is recommended if your subwoofer will be used
in a 2-channel only system. When a signal is connected to
the subwoofers Left In/Right In, the Low Pass Filter control
is active.
Signal Connection (see figure 4):
1 Connect the left out/right out from your preamp/receiver
to the Left In/Right In of the subwoofer. Use quality RCA
interconnects. If your preamp/receiver only has one set of
outputs you need to obtain Y adapters from your dealer.
Recommended Control Settings:
1 Calculate the number equal to 70% of your main loud-
speaker's lowest frequency rating. Set the Low Pass Filter
switch to the closest setting below the resulting number.
2 Play familiar music with bass content. Increase the Level
control until the music has deep extended bass. Be
careful to avoid levels that become overwhelming.
3 Try the phase control in different settings until the best
blending is obtained. If you are using the subwoofer to
augment other MartinLogan products, we suggest start-
ing with the phase set at 90°.
4 If you have completed steps 1–3 and still have weak or
boomy bass, adjust the 25Hz Level knobs to compen-
sate for these anomalies. Experiment with the controls
and listen to the effects. Try to find a position that
sounds correct to you. Experiment by changing the Level
control while adjusting these knobs. Find a position that
gives you deep extended bass and good blending with
your main speakers.
