power using the power switch on
the back panel of the system.
• The power indicator will turn
red and confirm that it is "on".
• Hold the start button for 5 seconds.
• A tone will be heard.
• You can now manually adjust the volume
level for that given frequency tone.
• Then, push the start button and it will
store that level for that frequency.
• Press start again, and you will move
on to the next frequency tone and
follow the same steps four times at
the four different frequencie tones.
• When all frequencies have been
adjusted to your liking, press and hold
the start button until the unit shuts off.
• Leave the Auto EQ switch in the
"EQ on" position to use the settings
that you just configured. If at any time
you'd like to default to factory settings,
turn the Auto EQ switch to "EQ off."

User's Manual
If I am using two XTEQ subwoofers,
What is the procedure for the Room
Equalization?
1. If you are using two XTEQ subwoofers,
make sure that they are connected
using the SLAVE output of the first sub
to the SLAVE input of the second.
2. back panel connections and controls
should be set to the following on the
'slave' subwoofer:
a. Nothing should be connected
to any of the Input connection
terminals (Left / Right or XLR).
b. Level should be set to "0" db.
c. Crossover should be set
to "bypass".
d. Phase should be set to "0".
e. EQ ON/OFF should
be switched to "ON".
3. Connect the microphone to the
primary unit only.
4. Follow the procedure for Room
Equalization for one subwoofer (shown
above). The EQ room measurement will
take into account the sound from both
subwoofers, and the EQ adjustment will
affect both subwoofers.
My AV Receiver has an Auto Calibration
and microphone procedure with its
set-up process. Which EQ / Calibration
system should I use?
Sunfire recommends that you use BOTH –
the Sunfire Auto Room Equalization AND
your AV receiver's Auto Calibration System.
For optimum performance, start with the
Sunfire Auto Room Equalization procedure.
Then make your connection between
the Sunfire XTEQ and your AV Receiver.
Then follow the AV Receiver's instructions
for its Auto Calibration System.Using this
alignment of steps ensures that the XTEQ is
first EQ'd to your room and then calibrates
all of your speakers including the XTEQ to
maximize your experience.
