[SUBWOOFER CONNECTIONS]
OPTION 2: HIGH LEVEL INPUT SETUP If your amplifier or receiver does not have a dedicated subwoofer output, it will be necessary to
connect your new subwoofer directly to the speaker output terminals on the back of the unit. In this scenario, you will be running high quality
speaker wires from the left and right front outputs of your amplifier to the high level inputs on the subwoofer. You will then need a second set
of wires to carry the signal from the subwoofer back to the main speakers.
[AMPLIFIER SETUP AND BASS MANAGEMENT]
Many home theater receivers/processors have a feature that controls how the bass is processed and delivered to the subwoofer. It also adjusts
the amount of bass that is sent to your satellite speakers. Look carefully in your amplifier or receiver's instruction manual for details on how
to adjust for the speaker size (sometimes called "Speaker Setup") for your system.
[CARING FOR YOUR PHASE TECHNOLOGY SPEAKER]
All Phase Technology speakers are finished with a high degree of craftsmanship in either hand polished paint or vinyl laminates. We recommend
using a lint-free rag with a small amount of glass cleaner to maintain the long-lasting beauty of the finish. Avoid products containing silicones,
oils, oil derivatives, or solvents. Enclosures finished in vinyl laminates may be cleaned with a damp cloth as necessary.
[MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE]
Because of Phase Technology's uncompromising quality control programs, it's unlikely that your speakers will ever need service if connected
and used as outlined in this Owners' Manual. In the unlikely event that a problem does occur, please contact your Phase Technology dealer.
Your dealer has the necessary factory-authorized parts and trained technicians to quickly restore your speaker to its original performance
specifications.
